How many people does it take to come up with a Canadian stamp
design?

These latest Chinese New Year stamps are a perfect example.



Why does the designer need an illustrator and a calligrapher?

Or some stamps in the past were designed by such and such,
based on a photograph by him or her and illustrated
by whoever.

How much does Canada Post pay for all this?

You are right BC.

It's like the credits in most movies for the last
few years where they not only list the coffee boy
but also his assistant.

lithograving - I prefer to ask, "how much / many does it take to come up with a GOOD design"? Our Chinese New Year stamps have been the best in the world (many, many awards) but this one is dull.
