2012 Stamp Program: Day 6


After a weekend away we are back with more stamps this week. Todays stamp is one being released in the Celebrating the Lunar New Year Series. As if you couldn't tell from the stamps design this one is celebrating the Year of the Dragon. The year of the Dragon officially begins on January 23, 2012 and ends on February 9th, 2013.

This is the fifth stamp to be released in this series. Each of the stamps were designed by Artist Kam Mak. You can click here to see a slideshow of his artistic process.

Now that is the only officially recognized stamp for the Year of the Dragon being published by the USPS...but people are lobbying to get Bruce Lee placed on a postage stamp for next year. The stamp would look like this. What do you think?
