Sunday Stamps: Urban Scenes

 Good day and welcome to my blog.

The theme for Sunday Stamps this week is Urban Scenes.  One thinks of buildings and cityscapes for this, but I am taking a different view:

Stamps from the US Postal Service celebrating hip hop.  This is a set, and the rest are shown below:

Hip hop music started in an urban setting.  The USPS pinpoints New York City in the mid 1970's. It is now a global phenomenon.

Sunday Stamps - Heads of State

 Welcome to my entry to Sunday Stamps.  It's going to be a hot day in the American Midwest - a projected high of 92 degrees F (33.3 C).

This week's theme is heads of state.  I have some older stamps for this.

Some humble stamps used for penny postcards.  Ben Franklin was not a head of state but one of the Founding Fathers of the USA, and of course Washington was our first president.

Sunday Stamps: Monochromatic

 Good day and welcome to my blog.  It is a warm, lovely day in the American Midwest.

The theme for Sunday Stamps is Monochromatic.  The USPS has a number of stamps that qualify, but this is a newer one:

A $2 stamp that would likely be affixed to packages, so you may not see it often.
