Hongkong Post announced today (June 15) that the new designs of stamp panes for the "Heartwarming Stamps Customised Service (2009 version)" will be launched in conjunction with the release of a new set of "Heartwarming" special stamps on June 25.
The "Heartwarming Stamps Customised Service" is available to add a personal touch to the stamps. This service was first launched in 2003 with new designs of stamp panes added in 2006, 2007 and the upcoming 2009 version. Photos or messages expressing excitement, affection and happiness to share can be tagged to these stamps, making them precious mementos of blissful moments. These Heartwarming stamps bear a "Local Mail Postage" or "Air Mail Postage" marking instead of value indicators.
Customers are encouraged to take the advantage of placing as low as five stamp panes per order of "Heartwarming Stamps Customised Service" (2003, 2006, 2007 or 2009 version) during the promotion period from June 15 to November 30, 2009. For enquiries, please call the Hongkong Post Philatelic Bureau hotline 2785 5711 or visit the Hongkong Post stamps website (www.hongkongpoststamps.com).
