This design was the fifth in the series of stamps with a Love theme. The popular series has provided many design approaches to the same general theme, including stamps covering both the one- and two-ounce first class rate (the latter for those who have particularly heavy love letters to send). Just as the U.S. Postal Service tries to maintain in its inventory of available stamps one with the design of the U.S. flag, the Love stamp continues to be popular among postal patrons.
