Item Description
Detailed DescriptionThis set of stamps comes from the double-sided booklet and they are never detached from the original backer. Only the stamps on the other side are removed.
It is a stock image only. If you want to see the picture of the actual stamp, please check with me before you bid or place the order.
This item includes one block of 4 stamps as shown in the picture.
The block comes from the booklet of 20. Each stamp is either 2-side perforated or 3-side perforated. I will send out whatever is available.
These self-adhesive stamps are being issued in double-sided booklets of 20.
These cheerful SANTA AND SLEIGH (FOREVER®)
stamps portray Santa Claus flying through the air in his sleigh. With a
cargo of toys and gifts produced in his workshop by elves, he lands on
the rooftop of house after house and slides down the chimney to leave
presents for girls and boys of all ages.
Santa's annual journey
is joyfully captured in this block of four holiday stamps, with two rows
of two stamps each presenting a “classic” image of Santa and his
reindeer circling around snow-covered rooftops.
Though his roots
go much further back, the modern Santa Claus, the giver of gifts,
captured the American imagination in the Revolutionary War era. At that
time, understandably critical of English traditions, people looked to
the Dutch figure of Sinterklaas for cultural cues and seasonal
inspiration. Since then, Santa has become more popular, and is today
beloved by millions of children who write him letters, track his
progress on the Internet, and leave him milk and cookies as tokens of
their esteem.
To their cards and letters and yours, these stamps
will add a dash of holiday merriment. Double-check your mailing list so
you don't forget anyone nice!
And to help make sure Santa visits
children who might not otherwise have any gifts to open at Christmas,
join “Operation Santa.” Here's how it works: Register at any
participating U.S. Post Office and read letters to Santa from
participating boys and girls. Select a letter and provide gifts for the
writer! Operation Santa observes its 100th anniversary in 2012. Although
USPS began receiving letters addressed to Santa more than 100 years
ago, it was in 1912 that Postmaster General Frank Hitchcock authorized
local postmasters to allow postal employees and citizens to respond to
the letters. This program became known as Operation Santa. Today,
hundreds of thousands of elves across the country are helping Santa make
his rounds!
Artist Paul Rogers worked with art director Howard
Paine to create this block of four holiday stamps. These
computer-generated images were originally drawn in pencil on paper.
The SANTA AND SLEIGH (FOREVER®)
stamps are being issued in double-sided booklets of 20 self-adhesive
stamps. Forever stamps are always equal in value to the current
First-Class Mail one-ounce rate.
