37c Holiday Cookies: Santa Claus single

The Postal Service issued the 37-cent Holiday Cookies stamps in four designs, on October 20, 2005, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and New York, New York (Mega Stamp Show). Derry Noyes of Washington, DC designed the stamps.

In celebration of the winter holiday season, the stamps feature festively decorated cookies. Two snowmen, two elves (one sugar cookie and one gingerbread), an angel, and Santa Claus are all part of the delicious fun, adding homemade warmth to seasonal correspondence.

The stamps were issued in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) pane of twenty stamps (200 million offset stamps by the Banknote Corporation of America, Inc.), a double- sided booklet of twenty stamps (800 million gravure stamps by Sennett Security Products), and a folded vending booklet of twenty stamps (100 million gravure stamps by Sennett Security Products).
