On 26th May the USPS Postcrossing stamps were out in the world. Three weeks later I got this maxicard from Bryon (the USA), which bears not one but two stamps, along with the First Day Cancelation.
There are four different designs that make difficult to choose a favourite. You can read more about this issue, including an interview with
Jackson Gibbs, the illustrator,
on the Postcrossing blog.
I got another one on the back of a postcard:

I'm still impressed that USPS issued postcrossing stamps, and that they chose a different shape to the standard global circle
ReplyDeleteI am especially surprised by the bold colours they use for this design. The stamps look great in person.
DeleteThese stamps are such a surprise on so many levels!
ReplyDeleteLike Postcrossing postcards!
DeleteI was quite surprised as well at this USPS release!
