#4364S- 42¢ Christmas Nutcrackers (small size) - Set of 4

Though they originated in the 18th century, the tradition of holiday nutcrackers became popular in the United States during World War II, when American soldiers stationed in Germany would bring them home as gifts for their loved ones. Imitating the appearance of royal figures, the miners who first came to carve the intricate figures found humor in making the visage of royalty perform the menial task of cracking nuts. Today, nutcrackers come in countless shapes and sizes, but remain a holiday tradition. This set of 4 stamps comes with serpentine 11.25 x 11 perfs, and is a smaller size than the previous set.
