The Latrobe post office is offering a postmark cancellation honoring late local golfing legend Arnold Palmer.
The April 3 postmark will be available for 30 days, according to the Postal Service. It features Palmer’s trademark umbrella logo.
The postmark offer arrives a month after post offices in Latrobe and elsewhere debuted a “Forever” stamp featuring Palmer.
Those who want to obtain the postmark must send a self-addressed envelope or postcard of their choice — bearing sufficient stamps for First Class postage — inside a larger envelope addressed to: Postmaster, 811 Jefferson Street, Latrobe, PA 15650.
For sturdiness, the Postal Service recommends inserting a card as thick as a postcard into the envelope to be returned, and tucking in the flap.
Customers can also send stamped envelopes and postcards without addresses for the Palmer postmark, as long as they supply a larger envelope with adequate postage and their return address
Items submitted for the special cancellation may not include postage issued after the date of the requested postmark.
