Birth of  Royal Baby

 

The Pitcairn Islands Philatelic Bureau commemorated the royal birth by the issue of new stamps.

The Royal baby, George Alexander Louis, born to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, has the title of HRH Prince of Cambridge, following a royal decree earlier this year, issued by the Queen allowing this royal baby – and all of William and Kate’s children, to be titled prince or princess. The decree said “that all the children of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales should have and enjoy the style, title and attribute of royal highness with the titular dignity of Prince or Princess prefixed to their Christian names or with such other titles of honour.”
