Britain's
Royal Mail fumes over stamps of gas-masked queen
Wed Jun 4, 1:06 PM ET
BRIGHTON, England (AFP) - Britain's post office is not amused that
a hip art gallery in the south of England is selling posters of mock stamps
featuring Queen Elizabeth II in a gas mask.

"The thing to do is to compare a stamp next to
the actual image that James Cauty has done. They're actually completely
different," a spokeswoman from the gallery told AFP.
Cauty, former
leader of the 1980s rock band KLF, or Kopyright Liberation Front, which in 1987
had an album destroyed after it heavily sampled the ABBA hit "Dancing Queen,"
said: "I am just an artist doing my job."
