Ohio flag to appear on postage stamp

COLUMBUS -- Ohio's state flag is to be featured on a
new postage stamp.
   The U.S. Postal Service says the flag appears with a butterfly
and milkweed plants along a riverbank on the stamp being issued
Thursday as part of the post office's ongoing "Flags of Our
Nation" series.
   The new stamps are "Forever stamps," meaning that they can
always be used on a first-class letter even if postage rates go up.
   Postal Service Chief Operating Officer Megan Brennan will
dedicate the stamps during a ceremony in Columbus, at the 2011
American Philatelic Society Stamp Show.
