Today's Sunday Stamps is dedicated to Easter. My country does not issue Easter stamps, I found a couple in my collection, more than forty years old, and a recent one from the USA not exactly intended for Easter.
Suriname, 1980
Grenada, 1976
USA, 2022
I wish happy Easter to all those who celebrate it!
Canada has never issued Easter stamps either. I think I've already shown the all ones I have from Poland and Ukraine. Stamps from Suriname and Grenada are a nice rarity. I find the Surinaamse stamp appealing with its geometric pattern. And the pasqueflower is always so pretty.
I have shown some from the East of Europe, too, where Easter stamps are a tradition, I think. Those from Surinam and Grenada arrived by post, but inside the envelope. I've never got mail from those countries.
I didn't check those. There are some issues about the Holy Week. The latest, in 2019. But there is not a theme they issue every year like, for instance, Christmas.

Pas de timbres sur Pâques en France, laïcité oblige :(
ReplyDeletePas mal. On pourrait se passer avec moins de timbres religieux en Espagne aussi.
DeleteOui mais en France à trop en faire ça devient de l'autocensure donc l'équilibre est fragile :(

A very pretty US stamp. I don't think we have ever issued Easter stamps either.
ReplyDeleteThe "Year of the Rabbit" stamps could do :)
DeleteThe Pasque flower stamp is as close to Easter as the USA has gotten. Pretty stamp.
ReplyDeleteIt is, I love it.
DeleteEaster postage stamps were issued by Equatorial Guinea, a former Spanish colony.
