Eager to show different lowrider styles, vintages, and colors on these stamps, Art Director Antonio Alcalá found that photography would best capture the essence of lowrider culture. “Photography helps honor the hard work that goes into the creation of each car,” he explains. “Using illustrations would possibly be more about the artist’s imagination than about actual lowriders.”

These stamps feature photographs by Philip Gordon of Let the Good Times Roll/Soy Como Soy, a blue 1946 Chevrolet Fleetline; and Pocket Change, a green 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme; and photographs by Humberto “Beto” Mendoza of Eight Figures, a blue 1958 Chevrolet Impala; The Golden Rose, an orange 1964 Chevrolet Impala; and El Rey, a red 1963 Chevrolet Impala.
