I believe there once rules about being honored on a stamp....he's met the first criteria...he's dead. There might be a time limit similar to go into a sports hall of fame....something like five years dead or some such, of course that could have changed....I'm trying to remember the gap between Reagen's and Nixon's deaths and the time before they were on a stamp.
The rules haven't changed. A person has to have been dead for 5 years before they can be honored with a stamp. The exception is a U.S. president and those stamps are now issued the year after a president's death, like Gerald Ford's just a couple of years ago.
But putting MJ on a stamp? There have been controversial choices before, as someone said. I don't much like the idea but I don't have really strong feelings about it. In 5 years maybe no one will be interested.
I also can't get past wondering which MJ face they'd use. :? :P
Sort of like the vote for young Elvis vs. Old Elvis....we would have a nationwide internet vote for black Michael or white Michael :twisted:
