The Eid stamp commemorating Muslim holy days was reissued Friday, the Postal Service said.

The stamp, first issued in 2001, was released at the new 41-cent first class rate that took effect in May.

The stamp observes the two most important festivals in the Islamic calendar: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha…

The image on the stamp contains calligraphy of the phrase "eid mubarak," meaning "blessed festival" or "may your religious holiday be blessed."
