Item Description

Detailed Description

This stamp was issued on Aug 21, 2014.  You can find "2014" printed on the stamp.

This booklet is no longer available on the USPS Web Site.  According to the Stamp Fulfillment Services, the booklet was sold out on Sep 30, 2014.

The U.S. Postal Service® continues its
tradition of issuing classic holiday stamps with this bright and
cheerful rendering of America’s favorite holiday flower, the poinsettia.The
stamp art depicts the rich red and vibrant green leaves surrounding the
flower—the cluster of small, rather modest cup-shaped structures in the
center. The red “petals” that we think of as the flower are actually
modified leaves called bracts. A potted poinsettia was used as art
reference.

While considered by the ancient Aztecs to be a symbol
of purity, the poinsettia today symbolizes good cheer. The gift of a
poinsettia is said to bring with it wishes of laughter and celebration.

Found
on everything from wrapping paper to holiday jewelry, the poinsettia
says “Christmas” more than any other flower. The stamp art’s vibrant
red—America’s favorite poinsettia color—adds a decorative and
celebratory note to cards and letters during the holidays.

William Low painted the stamp art. Ethel Kessler was the art director.

Poinsettia is being issued as a Forever® stamp. Forever stamps are always equal in value to the current First-Class Mail® one-ounce rate.
