Tiger is the third sign in the Chinese zodiac, and those born in the Year of the Tiger are said to be commanding, passionate and unpredictable. A dynamic leader with influential powers over the crowd, a Tiger person loves being the centre of attraction. Though rash and quick-tempered by nature, they are also generous and sincere in helping others. The stamps in this issue feature graphic illustrations of this aggressive and vivacious animal.
