Thrilling News!

The Post Office recently announced a new series of stamps honoring four western stars.  The stamps will feature our favorite cowboy, William S. Hart!

The images were created by illustrator Robert Rodriquez.  Mr. Rodriquez based his image of Hart on this classic movie poster from Bill Hart's last (and likely best) movie, Tumbleweeds.

For the announcement by the Pony Express, uh, the US Post Office, click on the stamps at the top of the page, or here.

To learn more about the artist, click on his image below, or here.

The stamps will be available April 17th, so see you in line at the post office!
