USPS Issues Frank Sinatra Stamp - May 13

On May 13, 2008, in Las Vegas, Nevada, and New York, New York, the Postal Service™ will issue a 42-cent, Frank Sinatra commemorative stamp in one design in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) pane of 20 stamps (Item 463200). The stamp, designed by Richard Sheaff of Scotts­dale, Arizona, goes on sale nationwide May 13, 2008.

With this stamp, the Postal Service honors Frank Sinatra, an Oscar-winning actor and a supreme interpreter of American popular song. Art director Richard Sheaff and stamp artist Kazuhiko Sano of Mill Valley, California, have chosen to present this iconic figure in a portrait based on a photograph by an unknown photographer.

My post office was sold out.

I just got mine at the local post office! When you take them outside in the sunshine his eyes really are a great shade of blue! I had to ask for them and one of the postal employees said they didn't have them and the other said, "Oh yeah, they're in the safe. So she went and pulled them out--I was the first to ask for them!
Then she told the other gal--here's the new state stamp--she then showed it to me, and said we can't sell it to you until tomorrow.
