LONDON : The Rolling Stones are being honoured on new British stamps, with a dedicated set featuring their performances worldwide as the legendary rock band marks their 60th anniversary this year.

Eight stamps feature pictures of lead singer Mick Jagger, guitarists Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood and late drummer Charlie Watts performing at different concerts around the world: from London's Hyde Park in July 1969 to East Rutherford, New Jersey in August 2019. "Few bands in the history of rock have managed to carve out a career as rich and expansive as that of the Rolling Stones," David Gold, Director of Public Affairs & Policy at Royal Mail, said in a statement.

Formed in 1962, the Rolling Stones are one of the world's most successful and long-lived rock bands, selling an estimated more than 240 million records worldwide and picking up numerous awards, including three Grammys, along the way.
