The Manchester worker bee is one of the best-known symbols of Manchester and has been an emblem for the city for over 150 years. The bee denotes Mancunians' hard work ethic and the city being a hive of activity. It has also come to represent the sense of unity in our great city.

The Manchester Bee Cachet first day cover with the Manchester, FDI Postmark postmark has been produced by Royal Mail/Post Office and features these stamps which can make a very collectible and lovely gift.
