The stamp, featuring the upper
half of the model 1015 in full color,
will be available in coil quantities
of 500, 3,000 and 10,000. The
stamp's availability will be at least
through 1996, and it is estimated
that about one billion of these
jukebox stamps will be sold and
placed into mostly business-ori-
ented mailings over the next 24
months.
The stamp commemorates the
importance of the jukebox during
the free-spirited years of the 40's,
50's and 60's. The jukebox dur-
ing those years, as we know, was
instrumental in the introduction
of new music and new artists.
