At this past weekend's La Fete du Timbre et de l'Ecrit 2007 (stamp festival) in France, stamps featuring images from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix of Harry, Ron, Hermione, the DA and the Weasley twins were released for sale. Additional scenes include Hogshead and one of Prof. Umbridge.
You can see images of the front
and back of the stamps courtesy of EW.net and additional scans of products can be found here here courtsey of UHP.
UPDATE: Thanks to Kate for letting us know that La Poste (French mail service) is holding a contest that will reward the best drawing inspired by Hogwarts, Quidditch and everything Potter with a trip to London, England while subsequent winners will receive Harry Potter items.
UPDATE II: You can see an additional image here, again courtesy of EW.net.

Ok I think I'm going to move to France for a little bit. That would just be a little weird. I suppose I could just go for a visit.

Very cool, could be a collector's item in the future, and maybe worth some money.
You probably can just use the internet if you want to get your hands on these stamps. No need to go to France!

Oh so cool! The French are really lucky! I would have a set that I would use and one that only for show. Wouldn't it be awesome to get a letter with a Harry Potter stamp!

The back of the stamps? That's strange... I wouldn't have expected there to be writing on the backs. They're kind of neat. If there were Harry Potter stamps here, I'd buy them.

That's really cool. I wish we had HP stamps in the US. I'm actually surprised we don't already, considering some of the other things we do have on stamps. *shrugs* I wish some website took international orders for those. They'd be fun just to have.

Very nice art work, I'm sure they will be worth a lot to collecters in the future. I wonder if there will be some for the American stamp collecters too?
Blessings! Hecate3fold!
