They are really nice -- one of the best holiday stamps IMO --

I did like the Peanuts stamps too though.

Thanks for posting, @gidgetgh

I LIKE THEM!

I'm kinda sick of Santa and the reindeers.

More festive than the Peanuts (although I liked them) but a little modern.

I prefer something more elegant, but most years I can't say I truly 'love' any holiday choice.

The Santa and reindeer were the ones I liked most from the last few years based on what was available in my area.

If anyone's interested, these stamps are available for pre-sale now on the Post Office's website. They start selling them on October 6th, but you can order them now, which I did this morning!

@gidgetgh thank you for posting this, they are just gorgeous and just what a I needed to see today as our weather has shot back into the hot/humid dome after being rather pleasant for a week . . .

I had to mail a small package last week so while I was there I asked for a book of stamps and they had animal ones . . . they are adorable, it's going to be tough to actually use them!

Thanks for posting. I am not wowed by those. I love my Peanuts ones from last year and the Rudolph movie ones. I wish they'd have beautiful traditional Christmas scenes at some point, like old-fashioned looking ones. Or Victorian Christmas ones.

I've bought some great stamps this year! I love my stamps!

Not loving those. To me they look like those Christmas cards charities send you when they are looking for a donation. I would like to see something a little more creative and "inspired."

JMO. Perhaps they look better in person.

Very nice. And, even better, they're less expensive than last year.

Thank you for posting. Pretty but I much preferred Peanuts - I love those silly characters.
