Always a pleasure to work with such a fabulous group of historians. Thank you @blackrauthor for graciously sharing the airpower Q&A with me (and for a fascinating talk on Cyril 'Frank' Babbage!) 📷: @AdamJKendall@spirit_spitfire@IWMDuxford
A privilege to take part in the @IWMDuxford History Festival on Sunday and meet the brilliant @hoyer_kat, @churchill_alex, @militaryhistori and work with the equally brilliant @SpitfireFilly again (her photo below). Thanks also to Fraser McCullum for keeping the show on the road.
Over the last week I've gained 12 new subscribers, based on a restack of my article "The Philatelist as Social Historian," the updated 5th anniversary edition of my article that appeared in the American Philatelist. Thrilled new people are finding it.

These stamps feature Victoria Tower in St Peter Port, Guernsey, which was constructed in 1848 to honour the island’s historic first visit by a reigning monarch - Queen Victoria, and Prince Albert - in August 1846. This was a momentous occasion for Guernsey; the Queen’s arrival represented a strong symbolic bond between the Crown and the island’s people.
