2001 IRELAND

LOVE/GREETINGS

The theme of 2001's Love/Greetings issue was Cool Pets or more specifically, unusual exotic pets which are almost totally self-sufficient and capable of surviving in a limited space.

 The stamps featured digitally enhanced images of a Snake, a Tortoise, a Frog, a Lizard, and a Goldfish, the latter being adapted as this year's Love stamp. The colourful illustrative style gave the stamps a fresh zany appeal, providing an upbeat adornment to your greetings message.
