Husbands And Wives Pictured Together On Postage Stamps

Marie and Pierre Curie have appeared together on several stamps. The stamp shown above by Nethryk was also issued by several French colonies in 1938.

Australia has at least a couple of stamps showing husbands and wives (outside of the Royal family). In the Legends issue of 2008, Victor and Loti Smorgon were honoured as philanthropists (SG2908). From the Just not Desserts issue of 2009, Baron Lamington and his wife Mary appear next to a sliced lamington.

Lord and Lady Baden-Powell appear on a stamp from Antigua & Barbuda (1985 - SG957).

From the Canadian opera singers set of 2006, Leopold Simoneau (tenor) and his wife Pierrette Alaric (soprano) are shown (SG2427).

Nice to have the image 22crows.

First of all let me say that I think that nethryk's Carl/Silvia stamp should be included on the 'beautiful women' thread. Yowza! (Silvia, not Carl. )

That said, here's a collection of four generations of royal marrieds on Canadian stamps.

A couple more royal couples from Southern Rhodesia and Bermuda.

And with Christmas coming up, what better couple than these two?

The shiny gold colour on the stamps just doesn't scan too well.
The actual sheet looks a lot better than the scan.
