Item Description
Detailed DescriptionFeaturing
calligraphy from the 2011 Eid stamp with a new green background, this
2013 issuance commemorates the two most important festivals—or eids—in
The Islamic Calendar: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. On these days,
Muslims wish each other Eid mubarak, the phrase shown in Islamic
calligraphy on the stamp. Eid mubarak translates literally as “blessed
festival” and can be paraphrased “May your religious holiday be
blessed.” This phrase can be applied to both Eid al-Fitr and Eid
al-Adha.
In 2013, Eid al-Fitr will be celebrated on August 8, and
Eid al-Adha will be celebrated on October 15. (These dates, which are
based on geographical location and predicted sightings of the moon, are
preliminary and may vary slightly as each festival approaches.)
The
U.S. Postal Service issued its first Eid stamp, with gold calligraphy
against a blue background, on September 1, 2001. A new Eid stamp with
gold calligraphy against a reddish background debuted on August 12,
2011. All Eid stamps to date have featured the work of world-renowned
calligrapher Mohamed Zakariya. The art director for this stamp was Phil
Jordan.
Like other stamps in the Holiday Celebrations series, the
Eid stamp is being issued as a Forever® stamp. Forever stamps are
always equal in value to the current First-Class Mail® one-ounce rate.
