Rabbit is the fourth sign in the Chinese zodiac, and those born in the Year of the Rabbit are said to be gracious, intelligent and sensible. A Rabbit person may look vulnerable, but he is agile and sagacious; someone who is able to hop over obstacles in his path and recovers with remarkable resilience. The stamps in this issue feature graphic illustrations of this nimble and loveable creature.
