USPS commemorates 75th Iron Bowl with special offer
Classy limited edition collectible stamps, envelopes to be released
BIRMINGHAM — The Iron Bowl, the annual grudge match between two fabled rivals, is fast approaching. To mark the 75th anniversary of the showdown, the U.S. Postal Service is offering a unique way to celebrate and remember the day.
On game day, Friday, Nov. 26, an unusual collectible will be available at the Tuscaloosa Main Post Office, as well as the Tuscaloosa University Station and the Auburn Post Office.
Three mementos will be offered. Each features an elegant design printed on silk, and custom postage stamps bearing the proud colors of the two rivals: crimson and white; blue and orange.
Those who dare can be one of a very few laying claim to a memento representing both teams. Called “The House Divided,†this clash of colors is likely to arouse the emotions and interest of many on both sides.
However, those with uncompromised allegiances, who admit no acknowledgement whatever of the opposing team, can select a memento featuring only the team of their choice.
The number minted for the day of the game is small. However, the memento featuring the stamp of the victor will be offered at most Alabama Post Offices about two weeks after the game.
Colorfully printed on silk applied to high-quality, linen weave envelopes, the cost for each stamped cachet is $10.
This special, limited edition collectible is expected to sell out quickly. And, say Postal officials, once they’re gone, they’re gone.

The bammers can set these right next to the limited edition Franklin mint Earnhardt plates.

Now they can cover up the holes with stamps. Problem solved.

I don't want any shit that has any Turd stuff on it.
The only thing that would be collectable will be all the arrest reports (spouse beatings) Friday night.

That's the way I feel. Never bought one of them damned "Iron Bowl" shirts or other paraphernalia or anything that had any fucking criminal nation bullshit on it.
