In celebration of this, the 30th anniversary year of Star Wars, the U.S Postal Service is issuing 15 Star Wars-themed postage stamps. The stamps will be available for purchase on May 25th and will sport the new 41 cent rate.
The stamps will be issued on a single sheet, however, as of March 28th, voting will be open to the public to determine the most popular stamp. The winning stamp be be issued individually this summer. You can vote for your favorite here http://www.uspsjedimaster.com/
I’ve looked over the stamps and think they are very cool. Though my Star Wars collecting nowadays is very minimal, I will definatley have to get these!! I’m having trouble deciding which is the best one though. My favorites are Yoda, the Stormtroopers, the Millenium Falcon and Han and Chewie. Since Star Wars really is the “Skywalker Saga” perhaps the more appropriate choices to be the single representing stamp are Luke or Darth Vader.
