I really think that stamps are some of the coolest objects in the world because they form a core component of humanity's visual, material and print cultures. In fact, the British Library's recent exhibition, Unfinished Business, The Fight for Women's Rights, includes a body of stamp celebrating women's contributions to science, technology and medicine, women from all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities who are involved in stamp production. Why don't we have a look at the work of my favourite designers? So let's start with the work of Jennifer Tooms. She went on to become a stamp designer, a career she pursued for the next 50 years. The one of my favourite sets of designs produced by Jennifer Tooms has to be the Les Soutou December 1977, Decay to Combat Racism Set. It comprises four different stamp designs, which I have here to show you in this volume. When you look at these stamps, you see a slight evolution in Jennifer Tooms' style from the use of colours and blackness into a more transitional modernist piece using an intermediate background colour. So for the four-cent stamp here on a pink background, we have a white face and a black face looking at one another, obviously talking with a black equal sign, mathematical symbol between them to symbolise racial equality. And that's then followed by the ten-cent stamp depicting black and white jigsaw pieces on a blue background that are interlocked together to highlight the way the community has to work together to build society. That themes then transferred across to the 15-cent denomination, which again uses a black and white cog that are working and rotating together on an orange background to show how societies need to be working and cooperating harmonious. And then it finishes off with the 25-cent denomination on a turquoise background showing a black and white hand shaking hands symbolising friendship. What I love about this set is it looks at the symbols of racial equality, of how reliant we are and one another and how we need to work together and of course how we need to be harmonious. Definitely important messages back then, but just as important today. Being a big fan of Chinese history, Lu Tianjiao is that a doubt among the most prolific stamp designers from the People's Republic of China. She designed well over 260 stamps with her colleagues and by herself. And these stamps really mirror the most formative years in the development and history of the People's Republic of China. I have here a set of five stamps that she designed in 1960. Now during the North Korean War, China accused America of committing a bacteriological warfare against the North Koreans. And that triggered a series of national health campaigns. The theme on this stamp here is about safety and cleanliness in the workplace. So it depicts here a Chinese factory worker in the foreground with a disinfectant spray machine in the background. That's then followed by the second stamp in the set which looks at the theme of Pestir Addication. The third stamp of the set and perhaps the most relevant today is about hygiene, about cleanliness to stop the transmission of a virus in your daily environment. So here we have a woman cleaning a glass surface as the major design and underneath that we have silhouettes of people cleaning up. This stamp here shows a doctor medically examining a Chinese child, reflecting the importance of a good health service, to help combat disease. The final stamp of the set and again one of my most favorite depicts an elderly, gentleman performing tai chi, a form of Chinese exercise. Healthy lifestyle, good hygiene and consistent habits, good habits which are messages conveyed by our governments to this day to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. That's all I've got to show you for now. In terms of studying female stamp designers, it's quite literally the tip of the iceberg, not to mention this being not even a fraction of our overall holdings.
