On Wednesday 14 January 1981 a new set of definitive value postage stamps was issued by the UK Post Office. The new issue effectively signaled the increase in the price of sending mail.
The price of a 1st class letter increased from 12p to 14p, while the price of a second class letter went up from 10p to 11½p.
