To create the original art, Rico used formline, the traditional design style of the Indigenous people of the northern NW Coast. The stamp depicts a raven as he escapes from his human family and starts the process of transforming back into bird form.

This week, USPS Government Liaison Mary Ann Simpson stopped by my office to present a framed copy of the new Raven Story stamp. Raven stories are central to the Tlingit and many other Indigenous groups in Alaska and around the region.

It is my great hope that this stamp proves to be a lasting tribute by telling the stories of Alaska's Indigenous peoples. If you need to stock up on stamps, Raven Story Forever Stamps are now on sale online and at USPS locations nationwide.
