Stamp of the Day: Swedish socks

Just a few days after I wrote the Socks entry here on the blog, a Swedish postcard showed up in our mailbox from friends in Sweden.  And guess what the stamp was?  Socks!  What a coincidence.  Socks are not really common stamp motifs indeed, in fact I can't remember ever seeing any other stamp with socks on it.  And here they are - striped, knitted socks on an official Swedish stamp.
