Super Mario Bros. Stamps are a set of Japanese postal stamps that feature sprites from the famous Super Mario Bros. game. While they are not accepted as postage outside of Japan, anyone outside of the nation interested in them as a collector’s item will be charged 3,150 Yen (about $25 USD) in addition to import fees. The set was first released at the end of May, 2007.
Overview
The stamp set appears to have been developed with the stamp collector or hardcore Super Mario Bros. fan in mind. Each set comes in its own hardcover booklet. The cover features a large Mario sprite and three Coin sprites as well. Also, the inside cover features a visual synopsis of the game’s ending. Each stamp sheet features the same ten stamps, five red and five blue. Additionally, the set has a montage scene of the events of Super Mario Bros. at the top.
