<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">To celebrate the 15 years of the Jr. Duck Stamp the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recently came out with a Jr. Duck Stamp Artists Booklet that features the past Jr. Stamp designs and interviews from some of the artists and myself. Here is a link to the pdf. version  <a href="http://www.fws.gov/duckstamps/federal/pdf/Jr.%20Duck%20Stamp%20Artists%20Booklet%20Final%20March%2012%202008.pdf"><rel nofollow="">-  Jr. Duck Stamp Artists Booklet&nbsp;</rel></a>   </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"> </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">It&#8217;s wonderful to see the program grow since I entered it. Just to see how collectible these stamps have become over the years. Each stamp is first issued for $5 and now many of them are selling on the secondary market for hundreds.</p>
<p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">You can see all 15 of them on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service official site &#8211; <a href="http://www.fws.gov/juniorduck/JuniorDuckStamps.htm">www.fws.gov/juniorduck/JuniorDuckStamps</a><rel nofollow=""><br /></rel></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"></p>
