Still, reality is rarely a limit to a marketer's imagination. In succeeding years, futuristic-seeming holograms became a gimmick. Sports Illustrated put a 3-D Michael Jordan on its cover in 1991, and the U.S. Postal Service issued its first hologram stamp in 1989. Both quickly became collector's items.
