‘Star Trek’ 50th Anniversary US Postage Stamps

Live long, prosper, and send greeting cards.

The Heads of State

A couple days ago was the 50th anniversary of the first airing of Star Trek here in the United States. To celebrate, the US Postal Service released a twenty-count set of commemorative "Forever" postage stamps designed by The Heads of State. The four respective stamps in the set are:

  • The Starship Enterprise inside the outline of a Starfleet insignia against a gold background
  • The silhouette of a crewman in a transporter against a red background
  • The silhouette of the Enterprise from above against a green background
  • The Enterprise inside the outline of the Vulcan salute (Spock’s iconic hand gesture) against a blue background

The set includes five of each design and goes for less than $10 at the USPS online store.
