Elvis Lost A Record

May 11, 2004 | Other
Elvis lost a record, but it was for a good cause. Until recently Elvis held the record for the biggest selling U.S. Stamp. This record has been taken over by the stamp raising money for preventing breast cancer. The Elvis stamp was discontinued in 1997, this stamp is still available and raising money.

Elvis still holds the record for the best selling commemorative stamp.

As great as Elvis was/is, he doesn't compare to preventing cancer, and I am sure he would happily see this one particular record broken. Good luck to the cancer research programme.

The Elvis stamp was no longer for sale in the post office when I was in Memphis august 2002. How can you hold on to a record this way. Why the Elvis stamp is no longer avaible no one could tell. Sylvain
