Bellevue postmaster Jim Carlin blends stamps and stained glass
Jim Carlin 41, Bellevue postmaster since 2005, collects mint stamps back to 1944 and, with his wife Katherine, has created about 80 stained glass pieces. He designs with Katherine while he cuts glass and soldering, sometimes aided by son Jimmy. The Carlins donate works to local groups and plan more for Bellevue High School. Carlin actively supports the Bellevue Historical Society and the one-room school house project.
