AP Photographer and activist Linda McCartney will be honored by the United States Postal Service with a series of postage stamps featuring her nature and still life photography. The collection contains 20 stamps with five individual images, including photographs of sunflowers and a teapot.
The stamp collection was designed by USPS art director Derry Noyes. A first-day-of-issue ceremony at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City will celebrate the photographer and the collection on Sept. 25. They will be available for purchase at USPS branches across the country the same day.
Born Linda Eastman in 1941, McCartney was a photographer who shot some of the biggest stars of the Sixties, a passionate animal rights activist, and the wife of former Beatle Paul McCartney. In 1968, her image of a young Eric Clapton made her the first woman photographer to have her work featured on the cover of Rolling Stone. Later in 1974, she posed for the cover of Rolling Stone alongside then-husband Paul.
