In 1997 the United States Postal Service (USPS) put their best foot forward and produced the Stampers Card Club for kids. It's primary goal was to attract and introduce stamp collecting to kids by providing the kids with baseball card sized, stamp cards, which had tidbits about each stamp and a mount on the front of each card to hold it's corresponding stamp.

USPS in it's efforts to introduce stamp collecting to kids even went as far as putting a 4 page add in the Disney Adventure Magazine which of course had a wide audience. USPS hoped for sales in total of 500,000 stamper card kits by Sept. 1997 and by Feb. 1998 had sent a total of approx 998,000 kits to kids. A sure success wouldn't you say? Kits contained stamp collecting information, a stamp comic book featuring Bugs Bunny, and a packet of cards to attach their stamps to.

At the 1 million mark, USPS was all out of kits and shortly there after the program disappeared. The cards were really cool, and the information on them was educational, a fun way for kids to collect and learn about the history of the subjects in each card
