In December the traditional stamp devoted to New Year is issued. The thematic miniature depicts Father Frost - one of the main symbols of New Year and the favourite fairy tale character - against the background of patterns and the Russian tricolor. Hundreds of thousands of children’s letters from Russia, near and far abroad come to his address annually.
The image of Father Frost has being developed during hundreds of years – each epoch brought new strokes in his character and appearance. In modern representation he is a kind ruddy old man with bushy beard, wearing felt boots, long coat, mittens and cap, who wishes everyone Happy New Year and gives children long-awaited gifts.
