Updated Announcement 07-C: 2007 Stamps and Postal Stationery

“2007 Stamps and Postal Stationery” (Updated Announcement 07-C, April 2007), which appears on pages 63–65, replaces the quarterly announcement of the same name, previously printed and sent to customers on request through Stamp Fulfillment Services in Kansas City. The announcement is a listing of stamps and postal stationery items scheduled for issuance during calendar year 2007. Post Offices™ may wish to post this schedule on their bulletin boards.

Customers may also access the Postal Bulletin through the Postal Service™ Web site at www.usps.com; click on About USPS & News, then Forms & Publications, then Postal Bulletin.

This announcement will be updated every 2 to 3 months, as changes warrant.

How to Order First Day of Issue Postmarks and Covers

Customers may purchase new stamps or postal statio­nery items at their Post Office, from the USA Philatelic cat­alog, by calling 800-STAMP-24, or online at www.usps.com by clicking on Buy Stamps & Shop. Then they should prepare their own covers by affixing new stamps to the upper-right corner of envelopes or postcards of their choice, and address those envelopes, postcards, or postal stationery items to themselves or others. (Postage must equal the current First-Class Mail^® rate.) For stur­diness, include a card of postcard thickness in each cover (envelopes only) submitted, and tuck in the flap. Place the cover in a larger envelope addressed to:

NAME OF ISSUE
POSTMASTER
CITY STATE ZIP CODe (followed by -9991)

Covers submitted for first day of issue postmarks may include additional uncanceled stamps only if the uncan­celed stamps were issued before the first day of issue of the new stamps or postal stationery items. All orders must be postmarked on or before the deadline indicated in the “2007 Stamps and Postal Stationery” announcement on pages 63–65.
