SUMMARY:U.S. Postal Service Lowrider Stamp EVENT!
DESCRIPTION:I’ll be your Master of Ceremony of the unveiling of the Lowrider Stamp. Come join us for this celebration. Please RSVP. \nThe U.S. Postal Service will issue Lowriders\, a set of new commemorative postage stamps. \nThe first-day-of-issue outdoor event is free and open to the public. News of the stamps is being shared with the hashtag #LowridersStamps. \nWho: \nGary Barksdale\, chief postal inspector\, U.S. Postal Inspection Service\, will serve as the dedicating official. \nWhen: \nFriday\, March 13\, 2026\, at 11 a.m. PDT \nWhere: \nLogan Heights Library\n567 S. 28th St.\nSan Diego\, CA 92113\nRSVP: \nAttendees are encouraged to register at https://www.usps.com/lowridersstamps. \nBackground: \nLow and slow: that’s the lowrider. When in motion\, these customized automobiles appear to glide over the road surface\, only to suddenly levitate and bounce up and down. These new stamps celebrate the lowrider culture that is rooted in 1940s-era working-class Mexican American/Chicano communities throughout the American Southwest. \nLowriders are viewed as rolling canvases of stylized art\, meant to be displayed in public spaces. The stamps feature photographs of five different lowriders\, richly adorned with dazzling paint jobs\, luxurious interiors\, and customized to hop\, bounce and cruise over the road surface. \nThe five models that grace the stamps are pictured from top left: a blue 1958 Chevrolet Impala named “Eight Figures”; an orange 1964 Chevrolet Impala named “The Golden Rose”; a green 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme named “Pocket Change”; a blue 1946 Chevrolet Fleetline named “Let the Good Times Roll/Soy Como Soy”; and a red 1963 Chevrolet Impala named “El Rey.” \nAntonio Alcalá\, an art director for USPS\, designed the stamps using existing photographs by Humberto “Beto” Mendoza (“Eight Figures\,” “El Rey\,” “The Golden Rose”) and Philip Gordon (“Let the Good Times Roll/Soy Como Soy\,” “Pocket Change”). Danny Alvarado added the pinstriping on the stamps. \nThe Lowriders stamps will be issued in panes of 15. As Forever stamps\, they will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail 1-ounce price.
