AFP reported that US Postal Service (USPS) introduced Harry Potter stamps on Tuesday.

The limited edition of twenty stamps feature images of Scottish author J.K. Rowling’s best-selling character “with the friends, heroes, villains and creatures that make up his world,” said USPS in a statement.

While Harry Potter’s friends are happy about the stamps, the news angered some philatelists who complain Harry Potter is not American.
