Marine life is today's theme for Sunday stamps. Both of these arrived on postcards, one from the German world of letters series, showing a fish and a seahorse, and one from the US, featuring staghorn coral and fish.
For links to more stamps with this theme, head over to See it on a Postcard.
The first with the seahorse caught my eye, as I wondered "Why is the seahorse drinking out of a bottle, or is it a message not to toss trash in the oceans?" Then, I see it's a message in a bottle, letters, mail, etc.! Silly me!
ReplyDeleteI love that last one. It's almost like it's overlapped cutouts right on the stamp. Very pretty. So many US stamps I've never seen.
The seahorse looks like it wants to read that message in a bottle, doesn't it?
DeleteI like both of these! A message in a bottle indeed.
ReplyDeleteI love that whole series
DeleteSo unusual to see a seahorse!
ReplyDeleteYou're right about that
DeleteI like the whole series of letter writing stamps from Germany, very creative!
ReplyDeleteThey are fantastic, aren't they
DeleteA letter in a bottle is a beautiful marine creature ;)

DeleteOf course it is also the letter in the bottle plus the seahorse that wins my heart.
ReplyDeleteI didn't expect the stamp to be quite so popular this week
