As a guest you may find the behaviour of existing members a bit overwhelming. Do not be afraid to ask questions. If you do, please not be overwhelmed with the answer as you usually get more as what you ask for. Some of us have been collecting stamps for such a long time that we have forgotten what it feels like to be a beginner.

  • A Christmas Seal Rarity by Christer Brunström
    Cinderella Time: A Christmas Seal Rarity By Christer Brunström Christmas seals were first issued in Denmark in 1904. They were colourful charity labels sold in time for the Christ- mas mails in support of tuberculosis suf- ferers. A hundred-plus years ago, this was a dreaded disease which brought untold suffering to its victims. Many readers are undoubtedly familiar with a lady called Emily Bissell. She was instrumental in the introduction of the Christmas seal in the USA way back in 1907. When she learnt that a small hospital in Delaware needed at least $300 to be able to continue its treatment of TBC patients she remembered the Danish idea. She im- mediately went to work creating a design that included a red cross and the words Merry Christmas surrounded by ivy leaves. In all its simplicity it was a very handsome design. The seal was printed and sold by the Delaware section of the American Red Cross. Interest in the Christmas seal was very strong and sales were brisk. A sec- ond version including the words Happy New Year was also issued to further increase the sales after the Christmas holidays. Issue 36 - December 6, 2013 - StampNewsOnline.net If you enjoy this article, and are not already a subscriber, for $12 a year you can enjoy 60+ pages a month. To subscribe, email [email protected] Ms. Bissell’s initiative was a resounding success netting almost $4.000! In 1980, the U.S. Postal Service issued a commemorative stamp in honour of Emily Bissell (Sc. 1823, FDC page 1).
