Snow Globes

Hand made envelope made by Phillip (the USA). It was sent on 16 November 2023, and arrived on 29 December 2023, bearing the First Day of Issue Postmark. 

This is what USPS says about the stamps:

Christmas snow globes are miniature holiday celebrations. One shake and snow covers the scene. Your holiday mail can assure a small snowfall for everyone on your list.

I cannot but agree.

I got more of those stamps. The first one sent from... Rudolph (Ohio)!

Today's theme in Sunday Stamps is Heads of State. On the sheet you can see Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, Queen Elizabeth II (head of a couple of states...) and heads-of-state-to-be Prince Charles and Prince William. 

The not-so-new and controversial Machine code stamps included on the envelope feature also a head of state(s):
