Gift of the Magi

The U.S. Postal Service commemorated one of the most beloved stories of the holiday season by issuing the Christmas Magi stamp Nov. 19.
The stamp celebrates the tale of three visitors from the east who came bearing gifts for Jesus. The artwork depicts the Magi atop a trio of camels near the summit of a small hill. Guiding them is a large star.
“We are pleased and excited that this stamp will decorate millions of greeting cards, letters and packages this year. And like the Christmas story and the three wise men, these stamps are good forever,” said USPS Board of Governors member Louis Giuliano, who dedicated the stamp at St. John’s Church in Washington DC.
