The United States Postal Service has honored Hispanic contributions to America since 1869 with the issuance of the first Hispanic-themed U.S. postage stamp.

This year, the Postal Service added the beautiful new Christmas Magi forever stamp to its holiday postage selection.

The Postal Service reminds customers to use the Christmas Magi stamps, depicting the three wise men bearing gifts, for Three Kings Day greetings, and to get Three Kings Day gifts delivered by January 6, use Priority Mail and Priority Express Mail.

At the Postal Service, the holiday season is our season!

A self-supporting government enterprise, the U.S. Postal Service is the only delivery service that reaches every address in the nation, 150 million residences, businesses and Post Office Boxes. The Postal Service receives no tax dollars. With 36,000 retail locations and the most frequently visited website in the federal government, the Postal Service relies on the sale of postage, products and services to pay for operating expenses. Named the Most Trusted Government Agency five consecutive years and the sixth Most Trusted Business in the nation by the Ponemon Institute, the Postal Service has annual revenue of more than $68 billion and delivers nearly half the world’s mail. If it were a private sector company, the U.S. Postal Service would rank 26th in the 2008 Fortune 500.
