The U.S. Postal Service today released a new priority mail stamp honoring Michigan’s Grand Island Ice Caves. Customers can use the stamp to pay for Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express Flat Rate shipping.
Located in Lake Superior half a mile from Munising in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, the sandstone bluffs “are especially dramatic in winter when lake water seeps into the crevices and caverns, forming magnificent ice curtains and icicles that hang like stalactites from ceilings,” the press release says.
The stamp was designed by art director Greg Breeding using original art by Dan Cosgrove.
