The Postal Service has issued a new 32-cent stamp featuring aloha shirts in five designs today. Gov. Neil Abercrombie and Postal Service Honolulu District Manager Frank Santos will officially dedicate the stamps at 2:30 p.m. at the Honolulu Airport Post Office.
Two of the five classic shirts depicted in the stamp art showcase surfers and their boards; one shows fossil fish, shells, and sea stars; another shows a tropical flower known as the bird of paradise; and one shows the Kilauea volcano.
This is a must have for any collector of stamps. Even if you are not a collector, these stamps are truly unique, and they represent Hawaii in a very unique manner.
The stamps were designed by Carl T. Herrman using photographs by Ric Noyle. The stamp will go on sale starting today in self-adhesive panes of 20 stamps and a coil of 100.
You can purchase the stamps online at usps.com, or at your local post office. Enjoy.
