The Postal Service will release its Snow Globes stamps on Sept. 19.
Adults and children alike enjoy the whimsical nature of snow globes — the flurry stirred up by a flick of the wrist that gradually settles to reveal a world in miniature.
The four stamps depict icons of the holiday season among flakes of snow, under a dome of glass.
Derry Noyes, a USPS art director, designed the stamps from oil paintings by artist Gregory Manchess.
The Forever stamps will be available in booklets of 20 at Post Offices and usps.com.
