Delaware Duck and Trout Stamps



Wildlife conservation stamps have always been a favorite of mine, though I don’t collect them (too expensive). The artwork on these stamps really stand out, and the contests each state has every year are kind of fun to follow. Yesterday, the winners of the Delaware Duck stamp contests and the Trout Stamp contests were announced. As usual, these are really great stamps and would make a fine addition to any collection. You can read more about the contests and the artists here and here. Maybe regular postal issues should be done the same way?
