One of my favorite poems "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe is celebrated with a commemorative edition book to commemorate the 2009 release of the Edgar Allen Poe stamp. Charlottesville, Virginia-based Journey Group created this booklet for the United States Postal Service. The book is largely a graphic representation and features the stamp artwork (oil painting) and commentary by stamp artist Michael J. Deas and a block of four Edgar Allan Poe stamps. The artwork for the book was created by French artist Emmanuel Polanco. Quite a beautiful example of design and illustration coming together to create something special.
