To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the "Doraemon" comic series, which has entertained generations and won the hearts of young and old alike, Japan Post issued two seal-type stamps with the theme "Doraemon". The design of the Doraemon Souvenir Sheet of JPY84 Postage Stamp (Seal Type) depicts the initial series of episodes with Doraemon and Nobita, evoking memories of different generations with a nostalgic style of painting. The image of "Doraemon with Dokodemo Door" is printed on the cover of the Stamp Booklet of Doraemon JPY63 Postage Stamp (Seal Type), making it highly collectible.
For those who are fond of nature, the stamp products "Dragonflies – II" and "Kakariki – New Zealand Parakeets" issued by Liechtensteinische Post AG and New Zealand Post respectively are not to be missed. In addition, the long-awaited "Annual Album 2019" issued by the Macao Post and Telecommunications Bureau will also be put on sale at the General Post Office, Tsim Sha Tsui Post Office, Sha Tin Central Post Office, Tuen Mun Central Post Office and Tsuen Wan Post Office on the same day.
