On October 8, 2018, the Spanish Post released a Christmas series of 2 stamps.
The classic or religious Christmas stamp issue this year depicts the Three Kings, in the Ateneo de Sevilla’s Epiphany Parade, marking its centenary in 2018.
A century has passed since the Parade first made its way through the streets of Seville on 5 January 1918. A group of Ateneo members first had the idea to spread good cheer among the children and adults of Seville. Over the years, the Parade became more elaborate and more significant to the city than they could ever have imagined.
The stamp shows an illustration of the Three Kings, provided by the Ateneo de Sevilla, alongside famous Seville landmarks such as the Torre del Oro.
The second Christmas stamp issued by Correos shows a typical holiday gift package, which can also be added to the Christmas-tree-shaped Christmas Collectible Card which was launched in 2016 and concludes with this stamp.
The stamp has an internal die-cut to allow the silhouette of the tree decoration to be detached and hung on the Christmas tree on the card, although it can also be left intact as a standard stamp.
