Santa's Stamp of Approval

Posted on November 29, 2012

Did you know the special picture postmark has been offered every Christmas season since 1983? What a wonderful tradition! The Santa Claus Post Office is the only one in the world with the Santa Claus name and receives over 400,000 pieces of mail in December. To give you a comparison, the post office only processes 13,000 pieces of mail each month during the rest of the year. See postmarks from some of its previous years on our page about the Santa Claus Post Office here and find information on how to get the 2012 special cancellation on your holiday mail here. The 2012 postmark will be available on working days between December 1 and 24. Head over to the Santa Claus Post Office this Saturday at 9:00 am CST to see Santa mail the first letter stamped with the 2012 holiday postmark. He is sending a letter in response to a 3-year-old boy who wrote to him asking not only for Legos, but for his daddy to come home safely from Afghanistan. More event information here.
