Geographic Holiday Postmarks

For the first time, the Postal Service is offering four different national postmarks now through Friday, January 2. All First- Class Mail with postage stamps will be postmarked with images depicting the four Holiday Contemporary stamps available this season. The four stamps commemorate the 50th anniversary of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and feature Santa, Rudolph, Hermey and Bumble — all include the words “HAPPY HOLIDAYS” with snowflakes in the background. The country is divided into four geographical sections — one image per section.
