The "Postal Passport to the Galaxy" promises its holder "a journey through space in stamps." The collectible booklet, which is also advertised as the "Sally Ride Folio," was first introduced by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) on the same day it released a new postage stamp for the first American woman in space.

To my knowledge, it is now only available via the USPS website and mail order. On a separate note, the included patches were created by illustrator Trey Ingram of Jacksonville, Florida.
