Charles Bukowski Postal Stamp

Are you a fan of Charles Bukowski? Want to see him get his own stamp? Over at PetitionSpot some folks are trying to make that happen:

“Charles Bukowski is uniquely suited for this honor. For in addition to being an acclaimed author with a growing international following, he is also perhaps the most famous American postal worker after Benjamin Franklin, and his landmark first novel “Post Office” is a wry portrait of the inner workings of the service where he was employed through age 49.”

The letter and signatures will be sent to the Citizens Stamp Advisory Committee on March 1, 2010. Click here to sign the petition.
