The stamps are issued in THAILAND, of course and if you have access to stamp dealers (for collectors) they should be able to order them for you. LINN'S STAMP NEWS (a weekly publication) in the USA is often available in "better public libraries".

 Telephone Book "Yellow Pages" often list Stamp Dealers/Stamps for Collectors. But these days, there are a lot fewer people in this hobby business, so it is more challenging than it was 25 years ago.

Thai Shadow Puppets appear on 4 different postage stamps in a set for "International Letter Week", issued October 4, 2008.

Well over 100 puppet images have appeared on postage stamps around the world since the 1940s. You don't have to be a serious stamp collector to enjoy these little pieces of paper. And they frame nicely.
