The stamps depict classic images from the series with a crew member who appears to be covered in stars using the transporter, Spock’s Vulcan salute with the Starship Enterprise and a planet designed into the palm, the Enterprise with the image of an exotic world in the center, and the Starfleet insignia with the Enterprise flying through it. The backgrounds are yellow, blue, red, and green – the colors of Starfleet uniforms.
They were designed by Heads of State design firm with art direction by Antonio Alcalá.
The four new Forever stamps will cost 49¢ in the U.S. and about £.33 in the U.K.
