The United States Postal Service, as part of the ongoing Star Trek 50th anniversary celebration, will offer Star Trek stamps in 2016, and below is a first look at the set. Designed by The Heads of State, who also designed the issuance/panel, each stamp showcases one of four digital illustrations inspired by elements of the iconic Star Trek: The Original Series. Antonio Alcala served as the project’s art director.
The four stamps include:
The U.S.S. 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 against a blue background
On the panel beneath the stamps, against a background of stars, are the words “Space… the final frontier,” from Captain Kirk’s famous voiceover.
