Four stamps show the U.S. flag majestically waving at different times of the day. While the shapes and colors of the clouds change, the sun is always shining on the flag. The flags, shown from a low-angle perspective, draw attention upward, toward the magic of the sky. The illustrator painted the designs using gouache on illustration board.
Art director Ethel Kessler designed the stamps with illustrations by Laura Stutzman.
These stamps will always be equal in value to the current domestic one-ounce letter postage price.
These self-adhesive stamps are being issued in Coil of 100.
