This issue celebrates the wonder of sharks with a pane of 20 stamps featuring realistic images of five species that inhabit American waters: The Mako Shark, represented here by a Shortfin Mako (Isurus oxyrinchus); The Whale Shark (Rhincodon typus); The Thresher Shark, here a Pelagic Thresher (Alopias pelagicus); The Hammerhead Shark, this one a Loped Hammerhead (Sphyrna lewini); and The Great White Shark (Carcharodon carcharias). On the selvedge, the stamp image of the Great White Shark is repeated at the top of the pane. The blue background color deepens in shade as one looks down the pane, evoking inky ocean waters barely penetrated by sunlight. Art Director Derry Noyes designed the pane of stamps with original artwork by Sam Weber. (Forever stamps are always valued at the current first-class mail one-ounce rate.)

My son insisted on a shark themed birthday so using these to send invites, he loves them and so do I!

Ordered these unique stamps to send out my Marine Biology graduation announcements and I couldn’t be happier! Come in a reasonable time frame and are exactly what I wanted. Thank you!
