Star Wars Stamp Sheet Unveiled

The United States Postal Service unveiled their collection of 15 new 41-cent Star Wars postage stamps today at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles, where the first movie opened nearly 30 years ago.

The commemorative stamps, which feature images from all six movies in the Star Wars saga, were painted by artist Drew Struzan. The images are: Luke Skywalker; Han Solo and Chewbacca; Princess Leia Organa with R2-D2; C-3PO; Yoda; Queen Padmé Amidala; Obi-Wan Kenobi as seen in Episodes IV, V, and VI, Anakin Skywalker battling Obi-Wan Kenobi; Darth Vader; Emperor Palpatine; Darth Maul; Imperial Stormtroopers; Boba Fett; the Millennium Falcon; and an X-wing fighter.

Of the 15 images on the stamp sheet, the USPS is inviting the public to vote on its favorite. The stamp receiving the most votes will be honored with the issuance of a single stamp, which will be for sale later this summer. Voting starts today online at www.uspsjedimaster.com... and will run through May 23. The winning stamp will be announced at the first-day-of-issue ceremony on Friday, May 25, at the Star Wars Celebration IV event at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
