Theme: The Legacy of Stan Rogers: A postage stamp celebration

My friend Stan Rogers was already one of Canada’s greatest folksingers and songwriters when he died tragically at the young age of 33 on June 2, 1983. On July 21, Canada Post issued a postage stamp honouring Stan Rogers and his contributions to Canadian folk music.
