New stamps this year – and next

The end of the 2011 U.S. stamp–issuing year is on its way! We have details about upcoming Holiday issues, as well as a peek at new definitive stamps expected in 2012.

This month's newsletter highlights photos from the American Philatelic Society's Stampshow in Columbus, Ohio; and from the California first–day ceremony for the Pixar Films: Send a Hello stamps.

You’ll also find a feature about colorful computer–vended postage labels that look more like traditional postage stamps than ever before. Are you adding these wildlife designs to your collection?

Happy collecting!
