Stamp History

On April 14, 1982 the United States Postal Service (USPS) released the State Birds and Flowers Issue, a set of stamps depicting the state bird and state flower for each of the fifty states of the United States. Arthur and Alan Singer, the two creators of this superb artwork, are the first known father-son team to develop art for a US stamp series. The father, Arthur, created the bird design, and Alan fashioned the flower design. At the time of their issue, these were the best-selling stamps in US postal history. The stamps were printed in the photogravure process, with fifty stamps per pane.
