As of March 29th, all of these stamps are available for adorning your mail. I like how the blues all go together. The Moon Stamp is a wonderful new edition for our International mail. The grapes are nice, I guess. They fit with the new 10 cent pears that are currently available and the 1 cent apples that don't yet have a release date. They are all only available as coils. I don't plan on purchasing any of those unless they change it so I'm not spending $500.00 on a thousand 5 cent stamps. The Sarah Vaughan issue is the latest in the Music Icon series. It's a lovely stamp.
Yet again, in doing these round-ups, I am hit with the loss of updates from the Beyond the Perf website. They used to have such a nice timeline of release dates, but nothing has been updated since August 2015. The catalog has a poster of last year's stamp releases, and the free stamp program pamphlet is for Spring 2015. It's a huge bummer and I wish it would come back. Leave stamps at their current prices and use it to pay people to work on this stuff!
I miss Beyond the Perf also.

Virtual stamp club keeps a pretty up to date lost, with good images.

Is it okay to use the international stamp (moon) to send a local letter? I know it would be overpaying but I love them so...Thanks

You shouldnt have any problems at all. I do it all the time.

Thank you - I thought I was just MIA on the Beyond the Perf updates, but hearing you confirm it all makes (sad) sense.
