Today’s Hero Is a 64-Year-Old British Man Named Angus

“Angus McDonagh, 64, says he has duped Royal Mail with over a hundred of his designs on letters posted all over the world.

Many feature his own face in the Queen’s traditional side profile complete with a comic eye patch or weird hat.

[…]

He makes special edition stamps, but instead of commemorating real life events they celebrate his own fantasy occasions such as ‘Upside Down Day’.”

-I will hear out further nominations for today’s hero, but Angus McDonagh, the British man who created 50 absurd stamp designs at home, printed them out, glued them to envelopes, and then successfully mailed 99 out of 100 of them around the globe “in protest at bland stamp design,” is our current front-runner.
