The U.S. Postal Service will unveil its new Forever stamp featuring Bruce Lee next month in Seattle.
The stamp will honor the actor, filmmaker and martial artist widely credited with breaking barriers for Asian Americans in Hollywood. The design shows Lee executing his signature flying kick against a yellow brush-stroke background—a nod to the tracksuit he wore in his 1973 film Game of Death.
On the right side of the stamp, BRUCE LEE and USA FOREVER are printed vertically and angled to appear as if Lee’s kick were breaking them in half.
The stamp unveiling will take place on Feb. 18 at 2 p.m. at the historic Nippon Kan Theatre in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District. Lee’s daughter, Shannon Lee, is expected to attend the first-day-of-issue ceremony, which is free and open to the public.
Built in 1909, Nippon Kan originally served Seattle’s Japanese American community and has since been restored as a cultural venue reflecting the broader Asian American and Pacific Islander experience.
Also included in the 2026 Postal Service lineup is the Lunar New Year: Year of the Horse Forever stamp, part of the agency’s ongoing series celebrating the Chinese zodiac. Created by artist Camille Chew, the design incorporates traditional motifs symbolizing prosperity and renewal.
