he Postal Service delivered the first taste of the holidays today by dedicating the Holiday Cookies commemorative postage stamps outside the world-famous Pillsbury Kitchens at General Mills Headquarters in Minneapolis. A dedication ceremony also took place in New York City's Madison Square Garden at one of the nation's largest stamp shows, the Postage Stamp Mega-Event.
The four 37-cent stamps - based on photographs of four cookies festively decorated as two snowmen, two elves (one sugar cookie and one made of gingerbread), an angel, and Santa Claus - are guaranteed to remain fresh throughout the holidays and into next year when they become available nationwide at Post Offices and Philatelic Centers beginning Oct. 21.
