Washington 2006 Stamp Expo Royal Mail Smilers Sheet - 25 May 2006

Royal Mail's Washington 2006 Smiler sheet is being issued 2 days before the show starts, unlike Pacific Explorer where the stamp was issued on the first day of the show. The show runs from 27 May to 3 June.

This sheet - like the 2005 one - is printed by Cartor of France. The labels show the iconic symbol of the American postal system, the US Mail box. From the advance publicity mock-ups we have seen, all 20 labels are identical.
