Description

Holiday Delights StampsForever 82￠ | Booklet Stamp FormatCelebrate the holidays with four stamps from the U.S. Postal Service. Inspired by folk art but with a modern graphic vibe, these charming stamps will add a touch of whimsy to your holiday mailings.With a traditional palette of red, green, and white, illustrator Kirsten Ulve channeled her love of Christmas, vintage ornaments, and Scandinavian folk art to create unique digital illustrations of four holiday icons: a prancing reindeer with antlers; an ornament tied with a bow and ready to hang; a tree topped with a star; and a stocking holding a teddy bear and a sprig of holly.The first recorded mention of decorated fir trees comes from early 17th-century Germany; the writer describes trees, brought indoors during the Christmas season and adorned with apples, gold foil, and other embellishments. German immigrants brought their Christmas customs with them to America. In the 1800s, American magazines began publishing images of decorated trees, and trimming the tree became a popular and fashionable tradition in homes across the country.The?Holiday Delights?stamps are being issued as Forever? stamps in booklets of 20. These Forever stamps will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail? one-ounce price.Stamp Issuance:September 24, 2020Frankenmuth, MI 48787Made in the USA
