This stamp captures the raw power and control required for the still rings, one of the most challenging events in men's gymnastics. The design features a male gymnast in a moment of intense concentration and strength. The issuance of this stamp in Colorado Springs, the heart of the U.S. Olympic movement, served as a send-off and a symbol of national support for the American athletes competing in Seoul. The stamp's design is a classic and powerful representation of the Olympic spirit.
