Christmas Goodies
Like an internet Santa, the Stamp Centre's website delivers the goods.
14 December, 2001
With your drummers drumming and your partridge firmly secured in its pear tree, reddwarf.co.uk has received several emails regarding Red Dwarf merchandise. But panic not - The Stamp Centre is here to answer the call for Christmas Dwarfendise.
With some cool Red Dwarf pens due out in the New Year - complete with gliding 'Dwarf and Starbug ships - there are still some goodies on offer. A pair of coasters - one featuring the 'Dwarf itself, the other showing the iconic image of Lister painting the ship's hull - are currently on release, and the 'Dwarf also features on the mouse mat.
Steven Scott from the Stamp Centre is amazed at the demand caused by reddwarf.co.uk's email out to the fans. "It's going to keep our fulfilment house busy for a day or two!" Steven laughs. "But that's what they're there for..."
As you'd expect, The Stamp Centre was responsible for the two Red Dwarf First Day Covers - signed and stamped memorabilia of the highest order. "The mouse mats are the newest item, but the covers continue to cause a lot of interest - a lot of the orders that have come in have been for covers even though they've been available for a while. As people become aware of it, they say 'yes please'!"
Steven also recently organised a second appearance by Craig Charles at the Memorabilia collector's fair in Birmingham. "We had a busy day, even though it was a late booking. He turned out to be very popular. [He was] signing the prints, as well as - am I also allowed to say? - Robot Wars stuff. We launched a Robot Wars Cover."
Autographs have become a big part of what the Stamp Centre has to offer. Following First Day Covers signed variously by Chris Barrie, Craig Charles and Norman Lovett, there are currently photo prints signed by Craig Charles, as well as the new 'May The Farce Be With You' poster.
