Typical tales involves sinister pirates burying their ill-gotten booty with the body of a murdered seaman on top of the treasure chest so that his ghost would guard it. A dream might reveal the site to a local who would proceed with friends in the dead of night to uncover the loot. The ground rule was no talking for fear of waking the ghost. Inevitably, however, a word would be spoken and the treasure hunters would flee for their lives from the enraged ghost. Designer Ralph Tibbles teamed up with illustrators Allan Cormack and Deborah Drew-Brook to create this year's Folktales stamps, as well as last year's Legendary Creatures stamps.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"stamp-article-ad\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Official First Day Cover (OFDC) \u003cspan\u003efor the stamp issued by Canada Post.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"See more from Canada Post Vintage!\" href=\"https:\/\/torontos-first-post-office.myshopify.com\/collections\/canada-post-vintage\"\u003eSee more from Canada Post Vintage!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canada Post Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46130610143481,"sku":"Canada Post Vintage","price":4.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/6514\/2603\/files\/CanadianFolklores1991.png?v=1738335917","url":"https:\/\/torontos-first-post-office.myshopify.com\/products\/canada-post-vintage-1991-canadian-folklore-first-day-cover","provider":"Toronto's First Post Office","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
