For us, it's a huge honour that the project was deemed worthy of being featured in a stamp, and we're very grateful to PostNL (the Dutch postal service) for making this dream come true. We'd also like to thank postcrosser Raymond68 - the Postcrossing stamp exists because of his efforts and persistence.
The stamp was designed by Garech and Declan Stone, and features all kinds of traditional postcards strewn about, as if scattered on your doormat. Here is what the stamp sheet looks like:
Neat, right? There are several different stamps, both for Europe and the rest of the world, featuring the traditional postcard motives.
The first stamps will be delivered to Paulo on October 15th, during the Postex event in Apeldoorn. Postex is an annual event for philatelic collectors, featuring celebrating associations, youth philately, traders from home and abroad, foreign postal administration(s), Day of the Stamp, exhibitions and much more.
