Purgatory Post, Como Park Post release new stamps

The month of February brought several new local post stamps and labels to my post office box.

We’ll begin with New Hampshire’s Purgatory Post. On February 18, Purgatory Post issued a 25-sola stamp, the latest in its long-running series picturing New Hampshire’s covered bridges. This newest addition depicts the Edgell Bridge near Lyme, New Hampshire.

The 132 foot long Edgell Bridge has spanned Clay Brook, which is itself a tributary of the Connecticut River, since its construction in 1885.

Minnesota’s Como Park Post also issued new stamps February 10. Perforated and imperforate versions of a 3¢ bull design were inspired by the first stamp of Romania (Moldavia).

Como Park Post has also released several different ink and paper color variations of an official seal.

As a bit of a teaser, I have my next Philosateleian Post stamp designed, but it will be May or June before I release it. Stay tuned!
