1998 Chinese New Year Plate Block of 4 32c Postage Stamps - MNH, OG - Sc# 3179
On January 5, 1998 in Seattle Washington, the USPS issued the sixth stamp in the Lunar New Year Series, celebrating the Year of the Tiger. According to Chinese tradition, a person exhibits the same traits as the animal of their birth year. For instance, a person born in the year of the tiger is said to be aggressive, courageous, sensitive, and hugely generous. However, they can also be undisciplined, unyielding, strong-willed, and impulsive. Any project they undertake will be successful.
These are real USPS postage stamps that are accepted by the USA Postal Service as payment for mail posted in the USA however the total rates on the stamps posted must equal or exceed the current appropriate postal mailing rate or extra postage must be paid.
