The four members of Australia’s victorious women’s freestyle relay team are the latest Olympians to feature on a stamp.
Stephanie Rice, Bronte Barratt, Kylie Palmer and Linda Mackenzie grabbed the gold at the Beijing Olympics yesterday, beating the Chinese and American teams in world record time.
Stamps featuring the four with their gold medals will be available in metropolitan Australia Post outlets from midday next Monday.
This will be the fifth stamp issued featuring Australia’s gold medal winners, and the third depicting swimming champion Stephanie Rice.
Swimming gold medallists Libby Trickett and Leisel Jones are the other athletes who have featured on stamps so far this Olympics.
