 This
July, the Postal Service continues its tradition of
honoring the spirit of athleticism and international
unity inspired by the Olympic Games. The stamp will
be issued to coincide with the games of the XXIX
Olympiad, which will be held from Aug. 8 through
Aug. 24, 2008 in Beijing, China. The stamp, designed
by Clarence Lee of Honolulu, HI, features a drawing
by artist Katie Doka, also of Honolulu. The image
depicts a gymnast surrounded by ribbon-like design
elements. In the upper right corner of the stamp,
the denomination is surrounded by a graphic element
that resembles the ink mark created by a Chinese
“chop,” a carved wooden stamp often used for
signatures or seals. The five Olympic rings appear
in the lower left corner. The design direction was
coordinated by art director Carl Herrman of
Carlsbad, CA.
