Transcamster Bog's first issue of 2023 depicts Flora Macdonald, the Jacobite who saved Bonnie Prince Charlie by disguising him as her Irish maid Betty Burke and putting him on a boat with her to Skye. The design is based on a portrait of Flora Macdonald by Allan Ramsay. The portrait is now in the Ashmolean Museum. 

Transcamster Bog stamps and covers are sold in both U.S. and U.K. currencies on eBay.
