Dairy gets its due with five new stamps that feature ice cream and dairy desserts.
The U.S. Postal Service has announced a new set of ice cream-themed Forever postage stamps for 2016. A date of issue has not yet been determined. Forever stamps are equal in value to the current First-Class Mail one-ounce price.
The Soda Fountain Favorites set features five illustrations by artist Nancy Stahl of New York City: a double-scoop ice cream cone, an egg cream, a banana split, a root beer float and a hot fudge sundae. A booklet of 20 stamps includes four of each design. Art director Ethel Kessler of Bethesda, Md., designed the stamps.
