""This early preview of our 2026 stamp program underscores the Postal Service's commitment to celebrating the artistry and storytelling that make stamps so special," Stamp Services director Lisa Bobb-Semple said in a statement. "Each stamp is a small work of art - an entryway into a larger story that connects people, places and moments in history." Many of the stamps are bright or use typography in bold or creative ways."
"The 2026 Love stamps are a series of four illustrations of stylized red, white, and blue birds by illustrator James Yang that were inspired by midcentury U.S. design and Japanese children's book illustrations, according to USPS. Stamps for Muhammad Ali designed by USPS art director Antonio Alcalá show an Associated Press photo of the boxer with his gloves up and his last name in big, all-caps, sans-serif type in red and black that evokes a boxing match promotional poster."
USPS will issue a 2026 stamp program featuring colorful, graphic designs and bold typography, with releases rolling out from January at Post Office locations and online. The Love series includes four illustrations of stylized red, white, and blue birds by James Yang, inspired by midcentury U.S. design and Japanese children's book art. A Muhammad Ali stamp pairs an Associated Press photograph with large, all-caps red-and-black typography that evokes boxing posters. A Kam Mak painting depicts Bruce Lee against a yellow brushstroke background kicking angled "USA FOREVER" and "BRUCE LEE" text. A 25-subject set honors Figures of the American Revolution, including Deborah Sampson.
