Thirty-four years after Ford Mustang was introduced at the New York World's Fair, the U.S. Postal Service is considering a commemorative postal stamp featuring the original pony car.

The Mustang has been nominated for a stamp along with other historical images from the 1960s. Mustang will compete against 29 other proposed images from that era. Other '60s icons nominated include: "The Peace Symbol," "The Motown Sound," "Man Walks on the Moon," "I Have a Dream," "Barbie Doll Steps Out," "Star Trek," and "The Beatles." The '60s images that receive the most votes will be announced in July.

Voters also have selected auto-related stamps from the 50s, including: stock car racing; cars with tail fins and chrome; and drive-in movies. Still, Ford's 1909 Model T is the only car thus far that has become a stamp.

Nearly 7.5 million Mustangs have been sold since its debut, and more than 350 Mustang clubs exist worldwide. If Mustang is selected, the special stamp will be issued in June 1999 -- two months after Mustang's 35th anniversary. Consumers will have until May 30 to vote. Celebrate the Century™ is a stamp program designed to give Americans a chance to select the most notable events, people, places, and trends of the 20th century. You can pick up ballots at Post Offices or at Ford dealers starting May 1 or vote online
