Isle of Man Post Honours Manxman Sir Barry Gibb

ISLE OF MAN POST on 3 November 2021 issued a set of seven first day cover stamps to celebrate the iconic superstar singer/songwriter/producer and Manxman Sir Barry Gibb. IOM worked closely with Barry to select these most personally-significant images from his life and career and the Bee Gees 1969 Cucumber Castle TV special, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band film and his Music Legend spot Glastonbury 2017 are particular highlights.
The set was presented on a superior envelope and completed by a black postmark for the day of issue in Douglas, Isle of Man. Housed within the envelope is an informative text card detailing Sir Barry Gibb’s fascinating life and career.  

Only a limited edition of 3,500 FDCs was released.
