Happy Lunar New Year of the Dragon! 恭喜發財!

Thought it would be a nice moment to share this lovely Hong Kong Ten Dollar stamp!

Two photos of King George VI by Bertram Park were considered for use on postage stamps. The first portrait was rejected by the Royal Mint, but accepted for those produced for the Commonwealth. The second portrait was accepted for UK circulation - and it tickles me how the King’s big ear was made smaller!

Which portrait would you have chosen? (I say, screw the photos, just give me Bertie😂)

US postage stamp, 2000 "Chinese New Year - Year of the Dragon" Scott #3370

Issued: January 6, 2000 - San Francisco, CA Quantity: 56,000,000 Designer: Clarence Lee Printed By: Sterling Sommer (Lithographed)

The origin of the New Year Festival is too old to trace. But according to one legend, a man-eating-dragon called Nian ('year' in Chinese) terrorized China until an old man convinced it to stop. People hung red decorations at year’s end to scare Nian away just in case it returned. Today, Chinese people still put up red decorations and set off firecrackers to scare Nain and other evil spirits away.
