Issued to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Bugs Bunny’s official screen debut, this stamp highlights the beloved character’s enduring charm. The featured design showcases Bugs Bunny as a piano virtuoso, drawn from Warner Bros. animation artwork inspired by the classic short Rhapsody Rabbit.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the First Day of Issue Ceremony was held virtually, with Burbank, California, serving as the official postmark city — fitting, as it is the home of Warner Bros. Studios.

Part of a 10-stamp series, each design captures one of Bugs Bunny’s memorable personas from his long and celebrated career. This particular stamp celebrates Bugs Bunny’s comedic resilience, as seen in Rhapsody Rabbit, where a piano concert spirals into hilarious chaos — a perfect nod to the wit, humor, and timeless appeal that have made Bugs Bunny an icon for generations.
