Sunday Stamps: the letter "X"

 Good day, and welcome to a cold cloudy day in the American Midwest.

X is a hard letter to find any words or stamps, but my colleagues have done well (check out SeeitonaPostcard).

I have an USA stamp for today though - not in hand; the image is from a stamp dealer.

Malcolm X was an American civil rights leader, active until his assassination in 1965.  His Wikipedia entry is HERE. There is a Malcolm X day, celebrated in Berkeley CA May 19 - his birthday.  I did not know this.

Sunday Stamps: the letter "W"

 Good day and welcome to my blog, and Happy New Year!

It is a cloudy day in the American Midwest, I am back from family travels, and it's time for Sunday Stamps.

This week we are up to the letter "W".

Author Edith Wharton, first woman to win a Pulitzer Prize for fiction.

And a large collection of wildlife.  Purchased long ago, I like the illustrations.

Sunday Stamps: the letter "V"

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.

I am visiting my mom with my family this week.

In the tour of the alphabet, we are up to the letter V, and I have a Valentine's stamp:

and from a package of used stamps that you can buy for not much money, some stamps from the Vatican:

Sunday stamps: the Letter "U"

 Hello and welcome to my postcard and stamp blog.

It is a sunny day in the American Midwest, and time for Sunday Stamps.

We are up to the letter "U" in our tour of the alphabet.  This makes me think of the United States of America, and I have featured many, many USA stamps on this blog.  Let's see what the USPS has for stamps this holiday season:

Four cheerful stamps that you can see here. (This image is from the USPS.)  Amaryllis, fruits and pine needles, 2 cardinals, and a wreath with a red bow.

Enjoy the season!  It's the solstice today, and days will slowly start getting longer (in the Northern Hemisphere) from now on.
