Special Events

A large number of letters and cards sent privately relate to events such as a birthday, death, birth or wedding. Four new special stamp designs aim to cover as many of these special events as possible.

Letters still play a very important role in certain events. Who would send a wed- ding invitation by e-mail or post a death announcement on Instagram? That’s why we’ve aimed to express the feelings and emotions associated with events such as mourning, birth, marriage, birth- days and exam results on the envelope as well as the stamp. Kriens-based de- signer Uwe Stettler chose traditional designs to hint at the content of the let- ter enclosed within the envelope.
