Christmas Stamps​

Do you remember the excitement of picking out special Christmas stamps for your holiday cards? Back then, it only cost a few cents to send a bit of festive joy through the post—sometimes as little as 1c! From sparkling trees to jolly Santas, those stamps added an extra touch of Christmas magic.

Yes, I always liked this surfing Santa and used to collect stamps so I had many of the Christmas stamps from over the years.

Not Christmas stamps but when I was younger I loved to send away for my stamp album, they mostly came from England and there were a lot of the Queen.
Sadly when I moved from Adelaide to Perth my mum threw them out, they would probably have had quite a few rare ones in there now days.
