Issue date - 31 December 1999 

As part of the Millenium series of Photomosaic Stamps featuring Princess Diana issued by many countries celebrating the end of the Millenium, this sheet of stamps features the mosaic of Princess Diana. 

The Guyana souvenir sheets features the sentence "A World of Tolerance & Understanding".

Each sheet utilizes the technique of  "Photomosaics", which is a method of arranging thousands of tiny photographs that when viewed from a distance, combine to form a single larger image, the picture of the face of Princess Diana.

The sheets commemorate both the Millennium and the remembrance of the life of Diana, Princess of Wales.

The nine countries which have issued the photomosiacs are: The Dominica, Gambia, Grenada, Guyana, Micronesia, Nevis, Sierra Leone, St. Vincent, and Zambia.

The sheets measures a large 6½" x 9¾" and all were issued on December 31, 1999.
