In concordant with the latest world fashion of personized stamps, Taiwan
Post revealed its personal greeting stamps on Dec. 12. The designs of these
ten personal greeting stamps feature beautiful and colorful flowers. The
greeting stamps have five themes: "Happy New Year," "Happy Birthday," "May
Your Wishes Come True," "Merry Christmas," and "Congratulations." Each
of these themes has two different designs. Each denominated stamp also
comes with a place beside it that either consists of an unvalued stamp
tab with a pattern that is a continuation of the one from the denominated
stamp along with a Chinese greeting and its English translation or else
a blank place to put one's own photo. These additional stamp tabs come
free and one can post them alongside their denominated partner or just
collect them. Senders can help bring people closer to each other by using
these personalized stamps on special occasions to express congratulations,
offer best wishes, or convey other feelings.
