Premier Postage Series to Honor Cal Ripken Jr. and Tony Gwynn

[fuser]

Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn can stamp their tickets to Cooperstown, literally.

Premier Postage will produce commemorative customized postage sheets of newly elected baseball Hall of Famers Ripken and Gwynn.

The exclusive 10-count sheets retail for $24.99 each and will not be reprinted once the 15,000 available sheets are sold. In addition, framed customized postage sheets will be available in autographed and non-autographed versions. The entire collection can be purchased at premierpostage.com, MLB.com, ironcladauthentics.com, baseballhalloffame.org, as well as Baseball Hall of Fame retail outlets.


The first printed Ripken and Gwynn Hall of Fame postage sheets are autographed and auctioned for charity on MLB.com beginning May 30. Proceeds from the Ripken postage sheet will benefit the Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation while proceeds from the Gwynn postage sheet will benefit the TAG Foundation.

"We couldn't think of a better way to launch our Major League Baseball postage products than to honor the incredible careers of these baseball legends," said Mike Samora, Founder and President of Premier Postage.

"This is really quite an honor," said Gwynn. "Lots of guys have had their pictures on trading cards, but very few players have ever been featured on their own postage before. What's great is fans can collect or use them to send letters."
