For those of you who may not be friends with me on FaceBook, I want to notify you of a special item that's coming to your local US Post Office on Friday, February 21, 2020. It's a 20-stamp, double-sided stamp booklet featuring photographs of some of the many wild orchids I've photographed over the years. These are "FOREVER" stamps, which means that they are good for first class postage, forever -- even if the postal rate changes.
Am I excited? Yes! It's truly an amazing honor to have my images appear on US postage stamps. For me, it is a trifecta: I am a photographer, wild orchid enthusiast, and a stamp collector. So what could be better!?!
For my foreign friends, I'm sorry that you will not be able to purchase them at your local post office, but you can order them from the website:
www.USPS.com/shop
Just type "orchids" in the search box.
Note that the above image has a USPS copyright. They have exclusive rights to the stamp designs although I retain all rights to the original images.
