U.S. Postal Service reveals new stamp honoring President George H.W. Bush. (USPS)

(CNN) -- The US Postal Service has announced the creation of a new forever stamp honoring President George H.W. Bush, who died late last year at the age of 94.

The USPS statement called the 41st President an "advocate for public service" and said he "guided the United States through the end of the Cold War and drove the creation of a multinational coalition that successfully forced Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait in the Persian Gulf War."

The stamp consists of a portrait of Bush painted by award-winning artist Michael J. Deas. It is based on a 1997 photograph taken by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders. Phil Jordan was the art director and stamp designer.

Based on a 1997 photograph, I think I would have gone for a picture of when he was in office.

Ok, where are all the Bush haters?

Tom ,I think it's a good photo.  At least, the USPS didn't go for one taken when he was really old and frail.
