U.S. Postal Service issues four new stamps celebrating espresso drinks

April 12, 2021

The U.S. Postal Service is celebrating America's love of coffee with the issuance of four new Forever stamps. 

This booklet of 20 stamps features four designs illustrating popular espresso drinks: espresso, cappuccino, caffe latte and caffe mocha.It can be purchased at usps.com.

Capturing the inviting atmosphere of an early 20th-century café, artist Terry Allen created each digital illustration with the style of 1920s and 1930s advertising posters in mind. Art director Greg Breeding designed the stamps with original artwork by Allen.

The names of the espresso drinks appear in art deco-inspired lettering above or below each enticing cup.

Espresso drinking in the United States is at an all-time high, the USPS noted.

"With the growing popularity of artisanal coffee shops, extensive research on the roasting and brewing process, and continued innovation in machinery to make the perfect cup, specialty coffee is better than it has ever been," the USPS said.
