On January 8th, 2010, Canada Post began issuing a stamp marking the Chinese New Year. The stamp and souvenir sheet feature a stylized tiger whose design relies heavily on traditional Chinese imagery, along with gold accents. This is the 14th year in a row that Canada Post has issued a stamp commemorating the Lunar New Year. Often a favourite with collectors due to the intriguing designs and use of colour, this year’s stamp will surely be a hit once again!

The souvenir sheet once again features a scroll design.

  1. Yeah, I must admit it doesn’t do much for me either… oh well! I guess we can’t like them all! 🙂
