Issued by the United States in 1962, this charming 5-cent Christmas stamp features a festive cluster of mistletoe tied with a bright red ribbon. The simple yet elegant design reflects traditional holiday symbolism, where mistletoe represents goodwill, peace, and celebration during the Christmas season. Printed in green and red on a light background, the stamp captures the warmth of mid-20th-century holiday stamp design. It was widely used on seasonal mail across the United States and remains a nostalgic favorite among collectors of Christmas and thematic philately. Well-preserved examples are appreciated for their classic festive imagery and historical place in early U.S. holiday issues.
