3¢ Sprinter - Summer Olympics
First Day: June 15, 1932
168,885,300 issued

These stamps did not encounter the usual resistance surrounding other new issues of the era in that they promoted the Summer Olympics of 1932 in the same manner that the "ski jumper" stamp above promoted the Winter Olympics. The 3¢ denomination reflected the anticipated increase in first class letter rate from 2¢ to 3¢, which actually took place on July 6 of that year and was printed in the purple of the contemporary three cent stamps. First Day sales for both stamps were on June 15, 1932 in Los Angeles, California and a day later in Washington, D.C. The stamps were very popular as souvenir items and as with all of the commemorative stamps of 1932.

All of the stamps are used. Sorry for the stock image, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to photograph stamps with enough clarity.
