The 90th Birthday of the Queen was commemorated earlier this year with a mini-sheet showing four generations.
There will not be a commemorative set like this again for many years.

Great stamps, and how amazing to have 4 generations together for a photo - not too many families can say that.
I agree, Bob! I don't think there would be a commemorative like this for many years also! Visiting from Sunday Stamps. cheers!
The Queen has such a lovely smile an the set with four generations is a nice souvenir sheet
Hi Bob .. love that one of George ... while the Queen looks wonderful in them - but I'm so pleased you've included, and they made, one with her and Mandela ...
Great selections ... cheers Hilary
I always remember after the death of George VI there was a picture of three queens at his graveside, Mary, his mother, Elizabeth his wife and Elizabeth his daughter. That was considered a very unusual picture and unlikely ever to happen again.
These stamp pictures are great.
