This work was first published in 2003 following the start of the Iraq War, when Britain, the United States and their allies invaded Iraq under the assumption that the country possessed weapons of mass destruction, which was later found to be a false report.
British Post threatened to sue Jimmy, claiming that using the Queen's likeness constituted intellectual property infringement. In fact, the Queen featured on the stamp was not a queen, but a portrait of an aristocrat, so the case was weak because it fell under "fair use" under copyright law. However, rather than risk an expensive legal battle, Jimmy decided to withdraw the work from sale and promised never to do it again.
The whole incident became a hot topic in the newspapers, and the "Weapons of Mass Destruction Stamps" became highly sought-after items among collectors.
The crown of the piece, which has been reproduced and exhibited for this exhibition, is inscribed with the words "TowerBlock1," which represents Jimmy's artistic activities. The original piece was inscribed with "Blacksmoke," the name of the art collective he was a member of.
