Snow Globes USPS Forever First Class Postage Stamps

On Sept. 19 in Breckenridge, Colo., the United States Postal Service will shake up the holiday mailing season with four forever stamps illustrating snow globes.

In an Aug. 18 press release, the USPS announced that the new nondenominated (66¢) Snow Globes stamps will be issued during a first-day ceremony to be held Tuesday, Sept. 19, at 11 a.m. Mountain Daylight Time at the Stephen C. West Ice Arena, 189 Boreas Pass Road, in Breckenridge.

Participating in the ceremony will be Sheila Holman, vice president of marketing for the Postal Service, as the dedicating official; Harry Rinker, a member of the Postal Service’s Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee; and artist Gregory Manchess of Portland, Ore., whose oil paintings appear on the stamps.

These USPS will always be equal in value to the current USPS First-Class Mail one-ounce price.
