Unusual (shaped, fabric, embroidery, cork, etc) stamps!

I totally agree. Also a series I really looked forward to just vanished without any notice. But I eg really like also the heroes of childhood or I also like the fairy Tales and lighthouses

According to Deutsche Post, two more baby animal stamps will appear in April. Badger and Lynx, 85 Ct each. I’m looking forward to that.
And another from the lighthouse series (also one of my favorites) in July: Friedrichsort, 70 Ct.

Oh Lynx is great, however I didn’t thought Lynx will come again, but just googled it and realized it was not of the baby animal series :heart:

I would have loved this, and the mitten, but they’re just too stupidly big!! If they were more normal sized, they would’ve been so cute.

For their intended use - sending medium sized parcels of up to 2kg weight within Austria - they are actually the perfect size. Not sure how many of them are really used for that purpose :thinking: and how many are just for collecting :heart_eyes:

Swiss Post issued recently a second stamp in its art collection. «The print’s special feature is the colour used: it’s the first stamp ever printed with chlorophyll pigments…. The green will change over time, depending on the effect of light.»
