New 'Forever' Stamp designed on a Mac

Tom Engeman is the 73-year-old graphics designer of the U.S. Postal Service's so-called 'forever' stamp. The 41-cent 'forever' stamp can be used as postage for a 1-ounce first class letter regardless of the future cost of postage until...well, forever.

Engeman, who hails from Brunswick MD, created the Liberty Bell image used on the 'forever' stamp on his Mac about three years ago and received the standard $5,000 fee for the design. He has designed 18 stamps altogether since 1989. [Dana Baggett via AP]
