Western Wear (Cowboy Hat, Belt Buckle, Cowboy Boot with Spur, Western Shirt) Forever Postage Stamps

The Postal Service celebrates the enduring legacy of Western wear with four fun new stamps that feature graphic illustrations of Western wear staples:

Cowboy boot with a spur,

Cowboy hat,

Western shirt, and

Belt buckle featuring a longhorn head.

A stippling technique, creating images using small dots of color, was used to give the illustrations a worn and gritty feel. Each image is framed by elements common to the American West and iconography of the region, including cacti, snakes, roses, and stars. Art director Greg Breeding designed the stamps with original art by Ryan Feerer.
