And I want to kiss the employee with the Postal Service who made a big boo-boo
with the LEGENDS OF THE WEST stamp sheets about 3 years ago, where the Bill Prickett
stamp was not Bill, but his cousin. They only distributed 150,000 sheets (and
destroyed the millions of other sheets) when they corrected the error. The $8.70
investment is now worth over $200 (for a 1990's stamp sheet!). I still have my 3
sheets.
