Influences:
The Anoia One Penny has a resemblence to the The Prince of Wales’s Hospital Fund One Shilling stamp issued in 1897. The stamps were printed by De la Rue free of charge, for sale to small contributors. The plates from which the stamps were printed were smashed ceremonially when the run was completed.
Great Britain Prince of Wales Hospital Fund 1/- : Each stamp bore the Prince’s signature and a picture of Charity, after a painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds.
