<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-402862" alt="jobsstamp" src="http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2014/02/jobsstamp.jpg" width="250" height="214" />The United States Postal Service today approved a commemorative Steve Jobs stamp that will be printed as part of a collectible series next year, according to The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/postage-stamps-of-the-future/2014/02/20/a0197660-999b-11e3-80ac-63a8ba7f7942_gallery.html#photo=14) (via Engadget (http://www.engadget.com/2014/02/20/steve-jobs-stamp)).
 
 The former Apple CEO's stamp is still in the design stages and will be released at some point in 2015.
 
 Jobs, who passed away in 2011 after a battle with pancreatic cancer, has also been posthumously honored for his visionary achievements with a special Grammy Merit Award (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/12/21/steve-jobs-honored-with-special-trustees-grammy-award/) and a Disney Legends Award (http://www.macrumors.com/2013/08/11/pixar-founder-john-lasseter-accepts-steve-jobs-disney-legends-award-in-emotional-speech/). He was also inducted (http://www.macrumors.com/2013/11/12/apple-svp-eddy-cue-accepts-induction-of-steve-jobs-into-bay-area-business-hall-of-fame-in-emotional-speech/) into the Bay Area Business Hall of Fame, has had a building at Pixar (http://www.macrumors.com/2012/11/07/pixar-names-main-building-in-honor-of-steve-jobs/) named after him, and was featured in an exhibit (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/11/23/steve-jobs-exhibit-on-display-at-u-s-patent-office-museum/) at the U.S. Patent Office Museum.
 
 The Washington Post has also revealed several other future postage-stamp subjects approved for coming years (http://www.scribd.com/doc/208045979/Postage-stamp-subjects-approved-by-U-S-Postal-Service), including Johnny Carson, John Lennon, and Michael Jackson.
