Bukowski Commemorative Stamp

After Bukowski passed away, there were all kinds of efforts to to persuade the United States Postal Service to create a stamp in his honor. Which made a great deal of sense: He was, after all, one of their own.

Alas, we are still waiting.

In the meantime, several artists created versions of their own “official” stamps, mimicking what they envisioned one would look like.

This one probably looks the most authentic. It was even sold in sheets enclosed in an official looking glassine envelope.

This is just a single stamp. It’s in Mint condition and measures… Well, it looks to me to be... about the size of a postage stamp.
