Their Stamp on History

Learn the stories behind the faces on the postage. Mixing philately and biography, Their Stamp on History delivers a little history lesson on the men and women pictured on recent US stamps. View portraits of the famous and obscure whose images are the targets of cancellation marks. Arranged by name index and subject categories such as inventors, musicians, athletes and actors, the purpose of this collection is to educate readers and serve as a resource for stamp collectors, students, and teachers. It seems ideally suited for a younger audience – perhaps a child beginning a stamp collection.
