Dear Socks Fan Club:
Do you know what country issues the Socks The Cat
stamps? -- Sincerely, Mauro
Chiaretti and E. Whitney Shugrue, Madrid, Spain
Estimado Señores Chiavetti and Shugrue:
Thank you for writing. International Collectors
Society (ICI) in Owings Mill, Maryland, contracts with various countries
to produce >specialty stamps. Usually, the stamps never go into circulation
and are unavailable at the post offices in those countries. Rather,
they are available by mail order only from ICI. The "country of issue"
gets a small percentage of ICI's sales.
ICI issued the SOCKS stamps about 4 years ago.
The "country of issue" was Central African Republic, is now called Congo.

Many people who love cats also love Garfield, Jim Davis's lasagna-eating, puppy-tormenting orange tabby. (Then again, many don't.) For a very funny once-a-month e-mail from Jim Davis his-very-self, send an e-mail to FatCatFans@garfield.com

SOCKS has his own ZIP+4 code, reports Semaphore Corporation (www.semaphorecorp.com). His address is SOCKS, The White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC 20500-0010. An interesting experiment for a school social studies class would be to write SOCKS at the White House and SOCKS THE CAT FAN CLUB NEWSLETTER, 611 South Ivy Street, Arlington VA 22204-2429, both on the same day, to see who responds first and what they send. (Hint!)
