Postage Stamps - Postcard Forever® - Sailboat - Sheet of 20

"Let's go sailing!" The U.S. Postal Service celebrates a favorite outdoor activity with two colorful stamps.

Illustrator Libby VanderPloeg grew up in Grand Haven, MI, a little harbor town on Lake Michigan, so sailboats were always dotting her views as a kid. With these memories in mind, she created two colorful, abstract images that capture the essence of sailing, one of America's favorite pastimes.

A sailing adventure is on the true joys of the summer months. Breezes ruffle your hair as your boat glides through the waves --- the smells of sea spray and sunscreen linger on your skin. You feel a joyful sensation as the wind tugs the boat toward the horizon.

Sailing offers a fun way to spend time with the family and friends in a peaceful place. So, find a boat, pack a picnic, choose your destination, and set sail toward the next harbor!

Antonio Alcala art directed the project

Sailboats will be issued in a pane of 20. The word "POSTCARD" on the stamps indicates their usage value. Like Forever® stamps, these stamps will always be valid for the rate printed on them.

Made in the USA.
