Sunday Stamps II 162

Welcome to my contribution to Sunday Stamps, in the cool and drizzly American Midwest.

SeeitonaPostcard is up to the letter X.  I remember gathering images from the internet of words pertaining to the alphabet, for a project my daughter was doing in first grade (some years ago now!)  Tiring of X-rays and the xylophone,  I printed out a picture of a Xebec:

A type of boat used in the Mediterranean.  "But momma, that is a boat!" claimed my daughter, and off we went to find a picture of a xylophone.

I don't have this stamp in hand - I went off on the internet myself to find this image of a Maltese stamp.

Sunday Stamps II 160

Happy New Year everyone!!!

It's time for Sunday Stamps, and SeeitonaPostcard is up to the letter V.  Growing up in New England,  I immediately thought of the state of Vermont.

A state stamp is still available in the collector's area of the US Postal Service website, paired with the state quarter:

The design of the stamp looks like a vintage tourist postcard.  (It's a little strange to see the Fall colors of the Vermont mountains up against the snow that Vermont is famous for.)
