A further six stamps, presented in a miniature sheet, feature illustrations of the creatures and beings of the wizarding world.

David Gold, Royal Mail’s director of external affairs and policy, said: “The Harry Potter stories and films have become a modern classic around the world.

“For more than two decades the characters in the Harry Potter series have captivated us and kept us enthralled. Each stamp is a miniature masterpiece, a fitting tribute to mark the climactic end to the Battle of Hogwarts.”

The stamps, and range of collectible products, are available to pre-order from Thursday and go on general sale on October 19.

Royal Mail partnered with Warner Bros Discovery Global Consumer Products on the new stamps.
