About This Stamp

Since his big-screen debut in 1940, Bugs Bunny and his trademark greeting, “Eh, what’s up, Doc?” have become fixtures of American popular culture. This Bugs Bunny stamp sheet — the first in the Looney Tunes series — featured a special 10-stamp design and was the first self-adhesive souvenir sheet issued by the U.S. Postal Service.
