Sunday Stamps: Beaches and coasts

 A warm sunny day in the American Midwest - perhaps Spring is finally here!

It's time for Sunday Stamps, and the theme is beaches or coasts.  This is a stamp I have shared before (in 2020), a USA stamp celebrating Maine statehood:

Maine is part of New England, so why 1820 for statehood?  Well, originally it was part of Massachusetts, then became a separate state.  This stamp shows a part of the coastline of Acadia National Park.

Sunday Stamps: Green Stamps

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.  It is a very cold (18 deg F) March day here in the American Midwest.  I was traveling all day last week and could not participate.

It's time for Sunday Stamps, and the theme is the color green.

From the US Postal Service website. a recent stamp honoring Shel Silverstein:


This, I believe, is an image from his book The Giving Tree.  Reading it as an adult, I never really liked this story, but that's just me.  I think this counts as a green stamp.

Sunday Stamps: Canines

 Good day, and welcome to a sunny day in the American Midwest.  The cardinals are singing, but not the robins, not yet.

It's time for Sunday Stamps.  The theme is Canines.

I don't have these stamps in hand, so I copied an image off a seller's listing on Amazon, of USA stamps:


These are military working dogs.  They are illustrated in a style similar to the elephant stamp that I shared previously.  4 designs, originally sold in a booklet of 20 stamps.
