total eclipse stamps

[asakiyume]

I thought these stamps were just cool because hey: cool image! Black and eclipse-y. I've received some on letters and I'd recently bought a sheet.



But then missroserose sent me a letter with this stamp and pointed out THAT IT CHANGES WHEN EXPOSED TO HEAT.

And I tested it, and it's TRUE. if you expose the stamp to heat, the silhouetted moon suddenly becomes pale and reveals all its features. SO COOL.

What a fun thing for the post office to do. Thank you, USPS.

I wanted to buy these the last time I needed stamps, but my post office had sold out. So I got Disney villains instead, which was almost as fun.

Disney villains would be especially fun when you're paying bills. I got a kick out of paying bills using shark stamps.

I voted using shark stamps! That was great too.

Yes! I can see it :-)
