This week we’re talking about a curious 5c stamp released in 1967 to mark the 25th anniversary of the Voice of America (VOA) radio program, a first of its kind global broadcast born in the crucible of WWII and transformed over the course of the Cold War and modern eras. Sam and Christopher chat about the VOA’s 83-year history and the stamp’s designer, legendary artist Georg Olden—the first African-American to design a U.S. postage stamp. Part 2 of this series will get into a far more obscure piece of VOA history: the VOA Stamp Club.
