Special Features

  • A denizen of riparian areas throughout most of the United States and Canada, this elegantly long and sleek mammal (Lontra canadensis) is designed for life in and around the water
  • Otters may look a bit awkward when walking, but they are nothing but graceful as they twist and loop through the water, slide down snowbanks, or frolic in the fluffy white stuff.
  • These Forever stamps will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail one-ounce rate. Made in the USA.

Description

Otters in Snow, a booklet of 20 stamps,features four different scenes of the alert and playful North American river otter reveling in winter's white landscape. With original illustrations rendered in pen and ink with watercolor, the stamps are arranged in blocks of four. From upper left and moving clockwise, they depict an otter poking its head -seen in three-quarters profile -from the surface of an icy body of water; an otter sliding on its back, tail first, down a snowbank; an otter chest-deep in a snow drift, facing the viewer; and another otter sliding down a snowbank. In the stationary poses, snow clings to the otters' fur. In the views showing motion, small snowballs race the otters downhill.
