The design pictures Federal Hill, the historic brick mansion in Bardstown that inspired Stephen Collins Foster’s song “My Old Kentucky Home.” The mansion later became part of My Old Kentucky Home State Park, making it one of the state’s most recognizable cultural landmarks. Kentucky became the 15th state on June 1, 1792, and this 29-cent commemorative stamp was issued exactly 200 years later on June 1, 1992, in Danville, Kentucky. The stamp was designed by Kentucky painter Joseph Petro and printed by Stamp Venturers using photogravure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSTAMP MEANING \u0026amp; SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Federal Hill and “My Old Kentucky Home” imagery evoke homecoming, memory, hospitality, rootedness, and deep connection to place.

The issue reflects the U.S. Postal Service tradition of commemorating state anniversaries with imagery tied to each state’s history, landscape, and identity.
