Elvis Presley will be featured on a US Postal stamp for its Music Icons series.

The stamp features a black-and-white photo of Presley, which was taken in 1955 by William Speer.

In the bottom left corner, between the words "Forever" and "USA", is a small gold crown, a nod to Presley's nickname, The King of Rock and Roll.

Presley's signature, in gold ink, is also featured along the right side.

To mark the release of the stamp, USPS is releasing a CD called Elvis Presley Forever, featuring two previously unreleased songs, "If I Can Dream," and "What Now My Love."

The album lands on August 12, the same day of the stamp's release.
