Christmas stamps from Switzerland



Date of Issue : 21 November 2008


Hi ! I am back with a short Post. I am very busy these days so, not able to update my blog regularly. Its very cold here with a mild snowfall on the surrounding hills bringing temperature very low here. Some other parts of Shimla also experienced season's first snowfall last night. So its quite chill....chill here ! Switzerland issued a very beautiful set of stamps on Christmas. They look so bright and sparkling and will add colours to Christmas mail. The motifs are a bauble, a star and a bell. For special effect, each stamp has been printed with a small, silver star which sparkles in the light. Behind the motif, the stamp also includes "Merry Christmas" greetings in Switzerland's four national languages. Meet our new member from Rajkot. In our regular series some nice FDCs of se-tenant stamps from the collection of Mr. Shrikant Parikh. This is all for today ....Till next Post.... Have a Great Time!....
