U.S. Postal Service Honoring the “Prince of Soul”
Postal Service is saluting the legendary Marvin Gaye with a Forever stamp — the newest addition to the Music Icons series. The artwork for this stamp features a portrait of Marvin Gaye inspired by historic photographs. The stamp pane is designed to resemble a vintage 45 rpm record sleeve. Another portrait of Gaye, also inspired by historic photographs, appears on the reverse along with the Music Icons series logo. Art director Derry Noyes worked on the stamp pane with artist Kadir Nelson.
