Motorcycle Stamps Roll Out

Friday, 04 August 2006 10:37

Show off your passion for motorcycles with the new American Motorcycle stamps now available from the USPS. The stamps were unveiled at Sturgis in August 2006 and can now be found at your local post office.

Three of the stamps feature digital illustrations of a 1918 Cleveland, 1940 Indian Four and 1965 Harley Davidson Electra Glide that are modeled after motorcycles in existence today. The fourth stamp shows a circa 1970 Chopper, which was created by the artist. The back of the stamps have descriptions and historical information for each of the motorcycles. Each illustration was created by Steve Buchanan of Winsted, CT based on existing restored motorcycles, reference photographs and consultation with owners/experts.
