I'M Back
Hello stamp collectors or anyone who enjoys viewing and analyzing miniature works of art. I have not updated this site during the past few years, but I am back, sharing my hobby with you. Bear with me as I update and clean up this site.Demarre McGill, Retired Deputy Fire Commissioner, Chicago Fire Department
CITIZEN’S STAMP ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Many of the subjects chosen to appear on U.S. stamps and postal stationery are suggested by the public. Each year, the Postal Service receives from the American public thousands of letters proposing stamp subjects. Every stamp suggestion meeting criteria is considered, regardless of who makes it or how it is presented.
The Committee's primary goal is to select subjects of broad national interest for recommendation to the Postmaster General that are both interesting and educational. In addition to Postal Service's extensive line of mail use stamps, approximately 20 new subjects for commemorative stamps are recommended each year. Stamp selections are made with all postal customers in mind, not just stamp collectors. A good mix of subjects, both interesting and educational, is essential.
The above information is from the USPS’s Citizen’s Stamp Advisory Committee website. Who do you want to see on a U. S. postage stamp?
