Sunday Stamps: Motion

 Good day and welcome to my contribution to Sunday Stamps.

The theme this week is Motion, which is hard to show in a painting, or the small space of a stamp.  But here is one stamp from the US Postal Service:

This is tennis champion Maureen Connolly Brinker, known as Little Mo.  She played in the early 1950's.  For three years in a row, she was the top ranked player in the world.  She is shown in the midst of a swing, and I think the stamp image captures her motion.

Sunday Stamps: Urban views

Good day and welcome to my contribution to Sunday stamps. 

This week's theme is Urban.  So I went through my blog to see what I have published before and found a city scene:

A view of the center of Paris, a lovely and romantic city.

It appears to be a joint issue with China?  This stamp is from 2014 or earlier so I am not sure of this.

Sunday Stamps: Black and White

 Hello and welcome to my contribution to Sunday Stamps.  It's Sunday morning and I am sipping my coffee.  Once again I surveyed the pages of the USA Postal Service and found a set of stamps, just released on Aug. 13, 2020.

There's a little color there, but mostly black and white!  These stamps feature the wire sculptures of Ruth Asawa  (1926 - 2013),  a Japanese- American artist who did drawings, painting, prints, and large public projects.  The wire sculptures are shown on the stamps.

A closer view of one stamp:

I don't have these stamps in hand, I am using the images from the USPS website.
