THE LORD OF THE RINGS POSTAL COLLECTION NEARING A COMPLETE SELLOUT THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING POSTAL COLLECTION AVAILABLE IN LIMITED SUPPLY <\/p>\n
To coincide with the worldwide release of The Lord of The Rings finale last December, the Isle of Man issued the ultimate tribute: a spectacular series of official postage stamps. The set of eight stamp sheets, souvenir sheets and postcards was nothing short of a worldwide sensation, thrilling movie fans on every continent. Now as the final chapter in Peter Jackson’s big-screen epic is released as a monumental home video\/DVD, this highly sought after collection is nearing a complete sellout.<\/p>\n
These Royal-approved stamps were issued by the British Isle of Man, the long-time home of actor John Rhys-Davies, who plays dwarf Gimli, and the voice of Treebeard in the three epic films. On an initial surge following the film’s release, more than three-quarters of the total quantities were sold by the post office. Now as the home video is set for release, only a handful remain.<\/p>\n
Authorized by New Line Cinema, the eight stamps sheets feature unforgettable scenes from the Oscar winning film. Leading characters including Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Frodo, Gandalf and Gollum are all featured on their own stamps. Additionally, there are four varying items that comprise the collection:<\/p>\n
Dot Tilbury, Manager of the IOM Philatelic Bureau, said, “For fans of Lord of the Rings, this is your absolutely last chance to own this popular official postal series. Once our remaining supplies are gone, this postal issue will not be reproduced. This is it!”<\/p>\n
