Zodiac stamp

The zodiac stamp for the Year of Horse will be on sale at local post offices from 6:30am on Sunday, the Shanghai Post Co announced yesterday. The stamp has a face value of 1.20 yuan (20 US cents). Stamp collectors can buy the stamp and stamp booklet at 98 post offices in the city. Horse is the seventh in the 12 Chinese Zodiac signs. The pattern of the stamp depicts a white horse which has a red saddle embroidered with two bats on its back, meaning “Ma Shang You Fu” (bats on the horse) which sounds similar to “have blessings immediately” in Chinese.
