Mick’s Local Post commemorates Maurice W. Moe

Mick’s Local Post of Oregon recently released a new local post stamp. The 1s design pictures Maurice W. Moe (1882–1940), an amateur journalist and poet who corresponded with the writer H.P. Lovecraft. I received a copy of the stamp pictured here on a cover postmarked in Portland on June 14.

This is not the first Mick’s Local Post stamp related to Lovecraft. The Oregon-based local post last year issued a stamp picturing Rheinhart Kleiner, a poet who was another of Lovecraft’s correspondents.

And with that, I think we’re caught up on local post stamp news at least for now. Stay tuned for more!
