Penderyn Dylan Thomas

Who Was Dylan Thomas?

Dylan Thomas (1914–1953) was a Welsh poet and writer whose lyrical, emotional, and rhythmic style made him one of the most popular—and notorious—literary figures of the 20th century.

Known for his booming voice and “rock star” persona, Thomas’s work often explores the cycle of life and death, the nostalgia of childhood, and the raw beauty of the Welsh landscape.

Collectibility & Legacy

As the third of a planned 50-part “Icons of Wales” series, Penderyn Dylan Thomas is a highly sought after by collectors. Since it was a 2014 release, it is rarely found on retail shelves.
