10 / 2022 COMMEMORATIVE SET OF STAMPS “CHRISTMAS 2022”

Our Christmas stamps have always captured a mood of warm-heartedness, childlike wonder, and nostalgia. This year, Hellenic Post’s four Christmas stamps feature famous characters from much-loved children’s tales, in depictions that are imbued with seasonal charm and invite us all to become children once again! The Nutcracker, the Ballerina, the Harlequin, and the Rocking Horse will remind us of the Christmas of 2022 but also of the Christmases of our carefree childhood. Happy Holidays from all of us at Hellenic Post to all stamp lovers and anyone who continues to believe in Christmas miracles!
