Sunday Stamps: Food

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a beautiful September day in the American Midwest, not a cloud in the sky.

It's time for Sunday Stamps, and the theme this week is food.  I have a stamp of grapes, not exactly grapes for eating.

According to the US Postal service, these are Pinot grapes, more likely to be made into wine.

This is a stamp to make up postage - therefore the 5 cents printed on it.  You would never see it alone on an envelope, as in the second image.  Even postcard postage is much more than that!

Have a good week, everybody.

Sunday Stamps: Color

 Good Day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a lovely morning, sunny and clear, in the American Midwest, and it's time for Sunday Stamps.

The theme is color, and our hostess has shown a range of Machin stamps from the UK, all of different denominations, and different background colors.  The USA generally does not issue stamps with the same image in different colors.  There are a few examples however.

These stamps were issued circa 2019 - 2020 I think, in time for Valentine's Day.  I have shared them before.

Sunday stamps: Patterns

 Good day, and welcome to my stamp blog.  It is a cool and cloudy day in the American Midwest.

It's time for Sunday Stamps.  The theme this week is patterns.  I have a geometrical stamp from the US Postal Service:

This stamp is worth $5 US so it is not a stamp you see everyday.  There are stamps with similar designs for $1, $2, and $10.

Sunday Stamps: Olympics

 Good Day, and welcome to a cooler and sunny day in the American Midwest.  It's time for Sunday Stamps.

I have a current stamp from the US postal service:

Women's rowing, though I haven't seen coverage of this sport this year (but I haven't been watching closely).

According to the USPS webpage, the USA women's team has won the gold medal in the past.
