#usstamps - ‘August Wilson’ A pane of 20 “Black Heritage,” Forever Stamps. On January 28, 2021, award-winning playwright August Wilson was the 44th honoree in the Postal Service’s Black Heritage series. The initial announcement indicated the Forever rate stamp would be dedicated “on the Postal Service Facebook and Twitter pages,” This is because on-site ceremonies are not being held during the Covid-19 pandemic; however, the site for the First Day of Issue cancellation will be Pittsburgh, Pa. One of America’s greatest playwrights, Wilson is hailed as a trailblazer for helping to bring nonmusical African American drama to the forefront of American theater. He collected innumerable accolades for his work, including seven New York Drama Critics’ Circle Awards; a Tony Award, for 1987’s “Fences”; and two Pulitzer Prizes, for “Fences” and 1990’s “The Piano Lesson.” #philately #philatelia #philatelystamp #stampcollection #mystamp #uspsstamps https://www.instagram.com/p/CNXh0NvLqHP/?igshid=zfullgk5w13q

#usstamps - “Earth Day” The USPS honors the 50th anniversary of Earth Day by putting its own stamp on raising awareness of our environment and the communities in which we live and serve. The new Earth Day Forever stamp marks five decades of Americans coming together to celebrate the importance of protecting the environment. The stamp was available for sale on April 18. Today, Earth Day remains a high-profile day for people around the world to recognize the importance of the planet and the impact of their environmental footprint. The Earth Day Forever stamp is a reminder for both senders and recipients that we share the atmosphere on our planet. #philately #philatelystamp #philatelic #philatelia #earthday #earthday2020 #stampcollection https://www.instagram.com/p/CGGgrxtl8XM/?igshid=1fu726oga7qop

Chrysanthemum is the design for the new Global Forever international rate stamp that can be used to mail a 1-ounce letter to any participating country. At January 1, 2020 that rate currently remained at $1.15. The stamp is round and features a photograph of a pink chrysanthemum on a white background. Taken from above, the photograph highlights the intricate features of the bloom. The art director was William J. Gicker. Greg Breeding designed the stamp with an existing photograph by Hong Vo. (I just sent a postcard to Russia and it was $1.20) #philately #philatelic #philatelist #philatelystamp #philatelicworld https://www.instagram.com/p/CCWYeSClhp8/?igshid=exfsxr9pkxro
