Rabbit is the fourth sign of the Chinese zodiac. According to tradition, those born under the sign are said to possess character traits such as kind, clever and elegant. Famous people born in the Year of the Rabbit include Albert Einstein, Tina Turner, Angelina Jolie, David Beckham, Henry Miller and Queen Victoria. This stamp issue is part of Singapore Post's Zodiac stamp series, which began in 2008 with the Year of the Rat. The stamps feature graphical illustrations of the modest, pleasant and sometimes overly cautious Rabbit in all three stamps.
