Christmas & New Year (1960)



Today's featured stamp and souvenir sheet is, very appropriately, from the 1960 Christmas & New Year issue. There were three different stamps and s/s issued to mark the holidays in 1960 and this one depicted, featuring the star of Bethlehem and a Korean sock, is my favorite of the three. In my collection are 2x souvenir sheets and 1x stamp. Here are the specifics for this issue:



  • Date of Issue: 15 December 1960
  • Scott Catalogue: 319
  • Korea Postage stamp Catalogue (KPC): N11
  • Quantity Produced: 50,000 s/s and 5,000,000 stamps


Merry Christmas
