Holiday Postage Helps Spread The Cheer


No bah hum bug here! With the holiday season in full swing, I thought it would be fun to showcase some of the beautiful postage stamps that represent this special time of year. Christmas stamps can be likely be found by every country that celebrates Christmas. They range from the religious variety (Madonna and Child) to the festive variety (trees and wreath types) to the cartoon type variety (Santa and Snowmen).

One of the funny postage stamps that I love comes from Antigua in 2006. It pictures Santa in his red and white bathing suit. Santa is enjoying his time on the beach in Antigua while being surrounded by presents. He is even wearing some cool Santa shades! Maybe this is where Santa hangs out while the elves are making all those gifts.

Of course in the United States, you are not just limited to Christmas stamps during the holiday season. You will usually find stamps representing Hanukkah, Kwanza and EID (Muslim holiday) at post offices around the country.
Be sure to check out Stamp Center for this Antigua stamp and all of your Christmas postage stamp needs.
