When you think about how the American (and world) economy is in bad shape, here’s a small note of cheer…
The US Government’s postal service is losing money – but they still can afford to make big and beautiful stamps.
(For scale, I’ve shown coins from America, England and Kenya.)
Still a good bit smaller than Jackson Pollock’s original, though, isn’t it? 🙂
I like postage stamps. Miss them, too, doing so much by email.
Are those special interest stamps? I just got a book of Simpsons and Bob Hope stamps but they were the typical size.
Marti – yes, I love old mail. Physical touch & feel.
James – they were out for a while but may not be available except at post offices that carry huge selections of stamps (sadly).
