I meant to share that here last week but I forgot.

I was so excited to finally see another global stamp!

Wow, I'm impressed.... The global does indeed look good.

Oooo, I really like some of these! Especially the Year of the Snake, and Appalachian trail ones. The Dahlias too! Can I just buy the postcard fall leaves ones and use a bunch of them on an envelope to send regular letters? (How many would I need to make the value of a global stamp then, I wonder…)

I’m not sure what I think about the new Global stamp… I might like it? I do love the current yellow flower one too, though, so I wasn’t feeling very anxious to give that one up. I do like the story behind the compass rose one though.

The postcard rate (domestic of course) is currently $.56 and International First Class (the global stamp) is $1.65.

Thanks for the info! But I actually do quite a lot of stamp combination right now, already. (Two forevers and two 10 cent ones are my favorite for international letters, right now)🙂 That question was more of a “wondering out loud to the universe” about what the postal rates will be by the time those stamps come out. It’s a mystery!🙂

Oops sorry. Same here. I do a lot of international happy mailing! I use a lot of vintage stamps in different combinations to make the happy mail even happier. 😊

Well we at least know they've said postage increases will not happen in January but who knows about July.
