This listing is for sheets of California Dogface Butterfly Non machinable stamps by USPS.
The California dogface butterfly graces the seventh non-machineable butterfly stamp for use on odd shaped, non machinable stamps which includes irregularly sized envelopes such as square or oblong letters, letters that can't bend easily because they contain rigid objects such as thick greeting cards, invitations, or announcements, pens, coins, or clips,; or closed with clasps, strings, buttons, or similar closure devices.
The stamp art was digitally created using images of preserved butterflies as a starting point. The result is a highly stylized, simplified image of a California dogface rather than an exact replica.
The words "NON-MACHINEABLE SURCHARGE” on the stamp indicate its usage value. Like a Forever stamp, this stamp will always be valid for the rate printed on it.
