Darwin Award

I was wondering if the Darwin Award has ever been celebrated on a stamp.
M. Didier Cuidet and an ever-hopeful nature brought it to mind.
Thanks in advance.

......and there I was, looking through my Darwin stamps
I was sure I had read something about the award.
Then I read wikipedia.
sometimes ignorance is not bliss.
I fell for it, hook line and sinker.

did Gene Roddenberry ever get his Startrek stamps? Must be a good idea for
the Marshall Islands? Anyone in touch with that bunch?

I am not a trekky, so I am not aware if the 24c is inverted.

Any fan would recognise that the ship is the Millenium Falcon of Star Wars
