The United States Postal Service unveiled a commemorative stamp honoring boxing legend Muhammad Ali in Louisville, featuring a 1974 Associated Press photo of him in a fighting stance. With 22 million stamps printed, the event included remarks from broadcaster Bob Costas and Ali’s widow, Lonnie Ali, emphasizing his legacy of kindness and service. This stamp celebrates Ali’s journey, from military rejection to becoming a global icon, and includes a sheet featuring him as an activist. Ali, who passed away in 2016, received numerous accolades throughout his life, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
