Jersey 2013 Superman Multi-Sensory Stamp set






Issue date - 07 June 2013

The Jersey Post has issued a set of Superman Stamps Set ahead of the release of the latest Superman film, Man of Steel, which stars Henry Cavill who comes from Jersey.

The Stamp set consists of 6 stamps featuring Superman's various super powers and a lenticular miniature sheet. The miniature sheet - 3 GBP features a lenticular stamp which when tilted shows the Man of Steel flying across the stamp.




The 45p stamp features a close up of Cavill, triggering an augmented reality app through Smartsy.(2024 update - the smartsy app not available for download as with all other Augmented Reality apps)

The 55p transparent stamp illustrates Superman’s most famous power – flying.

The 60p stamp with Simili silver foiling reflecting the Man of Steel’s strength.

The 68p stamp, a Heat Sensitive stamp is printed on monochromic ink, which when warmed reveals the earth behind Superman. (See below whole sheet has the Earth area blacked out)

The 80p stamp, a thermographic stamp uses actual crushed granite from Beauport Bay, which is Cavill’s favourite spot in Jersey.



The 88p Stamp, features a hidden message from Superman's father Jor-El which is visible only in the dark (glow in dark invisible ink used).
