Case study example | Royal Mail and Julian Opie
For the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Royal Mail licensed Julian Opie’s Diver (2011) to include in a series of celebratory stamps.
The series of stamps became available for the UK public, and visitors to the UK, to use on letters, postcards and packages.
