These science framed stamps of Newton for maths and physics from 1987 celebrate the 300th Anniversary of the publication of the Principia Mathematica by Sir Isaac Newton. They are beautifully designed stamps which show some of Newton‰۪s greatest discoveries. The stamps illustrate four of his achievements:

'Optic Treatise' showing a flask of water and refraction of light

'The System of the world' showing the earth and an artificial satellite.
