Kevin(AR8Jason) has posted a sheet of the Soviet issue stamps that honor the link up in space between the USSR and USA space programs in 1975. As he is busy working on other things, I thought I'd post the US versions for your comparison. The stamps, like the mission were a joint effort, as you can see .
