W is for Whale, White and Water

Five great shark stamps were issued last year by the USPS.


One of them is a whale shark (my favorite of the stamps), and if you're looking for a couple more W links, there's a great white, and all the sharks are depicted swimming in water.

 I sent them on this piece of mail art to Katerina.


For more links to postage with a W theme, head over to Sunday Stamps.

    I hadn't seen these before. I think my favourite would also be the whale shark.

    never seen nor heard of a hammerhead shark before, so strange!
    I don't think I have seen these stamps before either...but I would also vote for the whale shark ... looks as if it glows in the dark :)

    We also had shark stamps issued to coincide with Shark Week.
    The whale shark is really cool.

    Amazing stamps, and the hammerhead shark (in Dutch just hammershark = hamerhaai) always has been very intruiging to me (I even made a rubberstamp in honour of this funny looking animal). The whale shark is a beauty, and special of course, too :-)

      I am not surprised you like this weird existing animal :)
