Steve Jobs, of Apple fame, and Jimi Hendrix, of rock-star legends, are among the personalities slated to make an appearance on future U.S. Postal Service stamps.

Both stamps are listed in the “in design” status, which means it’s not yet decided which images will be used. But The Washington Post reported the Mr. Hendrix stamp is set for release sometime in 2014. Mr. Jobs will appear in 2015, The Post said.

Also in works: Stamps of the beloved Peanuts characters will appear in 2015, Charlton Heston in 2014, celebrity chefs Julia Child and Emeril Lagasse in 2014, and basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain in 2014.

Others set to make a stamp appearance include John Lennon, Michael Jackson and hip-hop artists Run DMC — but dates for them haven’t yet been set.
