For this Centenary issue, the Post Office has chosen to depict the Scarlet Corn Poppy (papaver rhoeas) which has a long association with World War I and Remembrance Day generally.
Each of the four stamps with values of 50p, 55p, 60p and £1.60p depicts a different image of the red poppy in growth, and unusually bears a specically produced logo which contains the shape of Ascension Island as a poppy within a circle which declares "Centenary of Great War 1914".
