In re Susan Sweeney’s and Alexey Sklayarenko’s recent
messages re a (US) VN stamp:
Some years ago I too, as
quondam prez of the VN Society, contacted the US Post Office about this

proposal.
I suspect that LOLITA (the movie?) was the extent of their knowledge of
Nabokov. My wife just came home from a visit to Post Office with blocks of
stamps depicting those cultural immortals Jimi Hendrix and Johnny Cash---both
favorites of ours, but really now....
