Sunday Stamps # 162

Good evening everyone, on a warmer day, where it did NOT snow!  The tips of my daffodils are showing above the mulch, but otherwise there is no green anywhere.  We will have to bide our time for Spring.

For Sunday Stamps, our theme is Letters, postcards, and the post.  I know this is a favorite of many contributors.  I have several stamps to share.  First, a sweet bear writing a letter, from Finland:


This, I believe is part of a series, and someone showed another stamp from this series a few weeks ago - I am sorry I do not remember whom.  Next up:


(sorry for the askew scan!) A beautiful landscape from Japan, but then I noticed it was from International Letter Writing Week in 2013!  A bonus.  Lastly, from the Netherlands:


It's hard to tell, but I think the little figure in this stamp is rushing to get his/her letter posted.

What do you have this week?  Perhaps a red letter box?  A stamp about stamps?  Please share.

Theme next week:  farms and farm animals.
Theme two weeks from now: buses and public transportation.

    I always love post-related stamps!

    The last stamp you're showing is part of a stamp sheet, I happened to post it on my blog for Sunday Stamps today :-)

    I have some old Japanese Letter Writing Week stamps but didn't know they were still doing them still in the same gorgeous way. The letter writing teddy bear is cute, it was my dancing ones I posted you remembered.

    The Letter Writing Week stamp from Japan made me wonder just haw many people write letters these days. We don't - and we only receive bills and official letters as well. Other means of communication have taken over,

    @Bob: It sounds a bit strange that a stamps' lover doesn't send letters any more! :)

    I only managed to find one stamp this week, and I had some issues with blogger which didn’t save my original post :( Second time lucky.
