More Bugs Bunny stamp images unveiled

The third and fourth Bugs Bunny stamp images will show scenes from 1947’s “A Hare Grows in Manhattan” and 1958’s “Knighty Knight Bugs.”

The Postal Service has revealed the third and fourth Bugs Bunny stamp images.

The third image, from the classic 1947 short “A Hare Grows in Manhattan,” shows a debonair Bugs wearing a beret, ascot, smoking jacket and shades.

In the fourth image, Bugs jokes it up as a jester in bright green garb and a fool’s cap. This shot comes from 1958’s “Knighty Knight Bugs.”

USPS revealed the images July 19-20 on its social media channels, including Facebook and Twitter.

The first two stamp images, which show Bugs from “Rabbit of Seville” (1950) and “Space Jam” (1996), were unveiled last week.

Additional sneak peeks are planned on the Postal Service’s social media channels during the next few days.

The stamps will be part of a 20-stamp pane that will feature 10 designs, with each design repeated twice. Each stamp will show Bugs — who has always been known for impeccable impersonations and masterful masquerades — in some of his most memorable getups.

The Postal Service and Warner Bros. Consumer Products will dedicate the stamps during a virtual ceremony Monday, July 27, which marks the 80th anniversary of Bugs’ official screen debut.

The stamp artwork was created especially for USPS by Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc., featuring work from Warner Bros. Animation artists.

Greg Breeding designed the stamps, while William J. Gicker served as art director.

Customers can pre-order the stamps at usps.com/shopstamps. For details about the virtual dedication ceremony, go to usps.com/bugsbunny.
