For the second time, the United States post office has put The King on a stamp. The Music Icons: Elvis Presley Commemorative Forever Stamp, features a black-and-white image from 1955. There was a midnight purchase party over night outside the gates of Graceland, with people from all over the world there to purchase the stamps. The first page of stamps went to a lady from Memphis (in the red shirt pictured below). She was excited to be able to buy the first ones. There was also an unveiling this morning at Graceland with Priscilla Presley there with Postmaster General Megan J. Brennan for the First-Day-of-Issue Dedication Ceremony. The stamp is available now at your local post office.
