DERAILED Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) In 2005 An Post commissioned Irish artist, Vincent Killowry, to produce a series of illustrations to mark the 150th Anniversary of the Completion of the Dublin Belfast Railway. A series of stamps were produced from the illustrations as well as a limited edition (750 sets) of 5 high quality prints using some of the images. Each print has been signed and numbered by the artist. In addition, an original postage stamp is affixed underneath each print and cancelled with the official 1st day of Issue postmark. When sold in 2005 this set cost €100 (original An Post invoice comes with the prints). Ideal for framing (each print measures 8.5 inches x 12 inches) and it is unusual to find an unframed set. In mint condition the set comes with a certificate of authenticity from An Post. Card outer folder shows some slight wear. €100 includes registered/insured mail in a strong card envelope.
