I picked up these Leonard Cohen stamps a couple months ago and thought it was about time I showed them off. These stamps issued by Canada Post were released on September to coincide with the 85th anniversary of Cohen’s birth. Leonard Cohen passed away November 7th 2016. He was a Canadian Legend who was a singer, songwriter, poet, and novelist. Leonard has been inducted into every music hall of fame you could think of. A true legend and missed dearly. This book of nine stamps with three different pictures shows Leonard through a different phase of his career. The front of the booklet features a picture of a mural painted on a building in his hometown of Montreal. These stamps can now go with the other Canadian music stamps (The Hip, Guess Who, Rush and Stompin' Tom Connors) I have collected over the years.
