"I look forward to giving the Postal Service plenty more ideas for stamps to honor the space program," Bolden said.
Shepard family members, astronauts, NASA officials and hundreds of others will gather again Thursday morning at the actual site from which Shepard blasted off, to mark the exact moment of liftoff: 9:34 a.m.
And on Saturday morning, a dozen or so former astronauts will take part in a parade in Cocoa Beach, riding in Corvettes just as the Mercury astronauts did so long ago.
John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth on Feb. 20, 1962, had to bow out of the anniversary festivities because of a death in the family.
On Wednesday, the Postal Service also issued a Forever stamp to honor NASA's Messenger spacecraft, the first to orbit the planet Mercury. It was launched from Cape Canaveral in 2004 and entered orbit around Mercury last month.
