Next week the United States Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe will present a couple of very cool new Hot Rod stamps during a ceremony at The Peterson Automotive Museum. These are almost a good enough reason to sign out from your email and start wiring letters by hand again!

To celebrate the launch of these Hot Rod stamps, including the actual ’32 McGee red roadster and ’32 black Frank Rogers roadster, a hot-rod cruise-in will take place at The Peterson Automotive Museum where the numerous fans of this particular fiend of motoring will get to indulge their love of retro bodies and big loud engines.
