USPS to Honor Willie Mays and Pat Summitt With 2027 Stamps

The U.S. Postal Service will honor basketball coach Pat Summitt and baseball great Willie Mays with commemorative stamps in 2027. Summitt’s stamp features a portrait by Roberto Parada, recognizing her 38 years leading Tennessee, eight NCAA championships and 1,098 career victories. Mays’ baseball-card-style stamp depicts him with the New York Giants and includes an image of his famous over-the-shoulder catch in the 1954 World Series; it will be the 50th stamp in the USPS Black Heritage series.
