Anyone will get delighted just by hearing that his/her photo can be printed on a stamp and the stamp can be used as a normal stamp! Want to know more about that? Lets see hod does it happen.
It is known as ‘Personalised stamp‘, My Stamp is a wonderful way to celebrate special occassions such as engagements, birth of a baby, or to send as greetings to loved ones and friends. You can now have photographs of yourself and your loved ones on a real India Post stamp sheet. Send out greetings on special occasions with a difference with stamps beaming your photograph or just preserve the stamp sheet.
The template on My Stamp would be printed on the six themes:
1. Trains
2. Aeroplanes
3. Wildlife
4. Panchatantra
5. Sun Signs
6. Taj Mahal
Each template is designed on one of the above themes and has 12 personalised stamps perferated on it. One can get their personalised stamps on their favourite photograph on all of the themes mentioned above. As this concept is very popular in foreign but in India was offered for the first time at INDIPEX 2011 at Rs. 150 per sheet. Let’s hope it is available throughout the year at all the GPOs.
