[Note on Stamps]
The stamps depict the pictures of illustrators and picture-book artists in Japan for the use of various occasions in winter. The sheet also bears self-adhesive seals to decorate or seal the mail. "Hotstamp" technique is adopted to transfer metallic or plastic foil by high pressure and high temperature for the special effects and price.
