The commemorative stamps celebrate the lowrider car artistry and culture “that is rooted in the working-class Mexican American/Chicano communities throughout the American Southwest," according to the USPS.

The stamps are “customized not just to hop, bounce, and glide over the road surface, but also richly adorned with dazzling paint jobs and luxurious interiors,” the USPS noted.

The stamps were designed by art director Antonio Alcala using existing photographs snapped by Humberto “Beto” Mendoza and Philip Gorden, while artist Danny Alvarado added the designs’ pinstriping.
