I've come across a trove of these and other stamps canceled in the Netherlands, most saying December on them but no denomination.
But I'm not sure of just what these are. Are they postage stamps? Or holiday (Xmas) labels? Or some other kind of Cinderella?
I'd appreciate being informed by someone. My thanks in advance.

Those that say 'December' are the annual Christmas stamps.

2017 NVPH 3595 (Scott 1557f?)
2018 NVPH 3706 (Scott 1578g?)
2020 NVPH 3890 (Scott ?)
From annual Christmas sheetlets.

Looking for the final one, appears a personal stamp. But could be a special stamp issued in 2014.

Edit: yes, 2014 Dutch icons set, basic inland tariff (1) up to 20 grammes. NVPH 3144, Kissing couple in traditional dress.

From Last Dodo Catalogue





The Christmas stamps, or December stamps as we call them, are valid on seasonal mail in December, until 6 January (Epiphany that is not a festivity here). After that, they remain valid, but you have to add the discounted amount.

After 6 January (issues since 2010) the discount on the ordinary basic inland tariff has been 10 cents.

The word 'december' identifies the tariff.

Thank you both!
I was unaware of these, as I am in "Assisted Living" & don't have access to stamp catalogs.
