About Chinese Year of the Rabbit

This issue continues the Isle of Man Post Office’s strong association with the theme, having released numerous stamp issues commemorating the start of the Chinese New Year and including the previous five years; in the Year of the Pig, the Year of the Dog, the Year of the Rat, the Year of the Ox, the Year of the Tiger and now that of the Rabbit.

The Rabbit is the fourth animal sign in the Chinese zodiac cycle. The 12 zodiac animals are the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig. Each year has an animal sign according to the 12-year-cycle and holds a special place in ancient Chinese cultural heritage.

Famous celebrity Rabbits include Albert Einstein, Whitney Houston, Roger Moore and Orson Welles.

We are honoured to have worked alongside artist Stanley Chow, born in Manchester to parents who emigrated from Hong Kong, Chow is a well-established artist and illustrator who has worked with a list of internationally recognised brands such as Manchester United, McDonald's, Lego and Ed Sheeran.
