Each year, since 1966, special seasonal stamps have been issued for Christmas. The notable 50th anniversary has been celebrated in a unique Generic Stamp Sheet featuring ten First Class and ten Second Class stamps from the 2016 issue set against a background containing images of selected Christmas stamps from the past five decades. It also includes labels bearing popular season's greetings for use when sending Christmas cards.
This cover features a snowman and a Winterton, Scunthorpe 1966-2016 anniversary handstamp.
