USPS Issues New Forever U.S. Flag Stamps

 USPS Issues New Forever U.S. Flag Stamps

WASHINGTON PRNewswire -- The U.S. Postal
Service has released a new set of U.S. Flag Forever
stamps. The enduring symbol of freedom and national
pride — in stamp form — is available at Post Office
locations nationwide today.

The stamp is available in panes of 20, booklets of
20 and coils of 100, 3,000 and 10,000. The U.S. Flag
stamp is being issued as a Forever stamp, which will
always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail
1-ounce price.

The American flag has long symbolized the strength
and spirit of our nation. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation establishing June 14 as Flag Day, which Congress officially designated in August 1949. Today, the American flag remains a powerful symbol.

Reminiscent of the 50 flags encircling the Washington Monument, the three flags represented on the stamp are shown as if on poles arranged in a circular formation. The design was painted using gouache on gesso board. The American flag has many nicknames, including the Stars and Stripes, the Star-Spangled Banner, and Old Glory, and has seen many changes
throughout the history of the United States. The current
flag has 13 alternating red and white stripes, symbolizing
the 13 colonies that declared independence from the
United Kingdom and became the first states of the United
States. Fifty white stars, one for each state in the union, lie
in a field of blue.
