==Commemoration==
The first spacewalk, made by Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, was commemorated in 1965 with several Eastern Bloc stamps (see [[Alexei Leonov#Stamps]]). Since the Soviet Union did not publish details of the Voskhod spacecraft at the time, the spaceship depiction in the stamps was purely fictional.

The [[U.S. Post Office]] issued a postage stamp in 1967 commemorating [[Ed White (astronaut)|Ed White]]'s first American spacewalk. The engraved image has an accurate depiction of the [[Gemini IV]] spacecraft and White's [[space suit]].<ref>Scotts Specialized Catalogue of United States Postage Stamps</ref>
