2012 Four Flags Forever Forever Stamps
19.99
One of the most iconic and beloved USPS Forever Stamps issues. This quartet of Stamps features a bright U.S. flag against a white background. A single word appears on each of the four Stamps in large letters: Freedom, Liberty, Equality, and Justice. The black typeface recalls the look of Colonial-era printing.
Thirteen colonies sought fair treatment from Great Britain, but injustices persisted. In 1776, representatives met in Philadelphia, signed the Declaration of Independence, and formed a new nation.
The document affirmed the equal value of all people, declaring "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness" as "unalienable" rights. Writers accused King George III of obstructing justice, declaring him unfit to rule.
The Founding Fathers envisioned a nation where justice and the "blessings of liberty" were secured, as outlined in the Constitution. Over two centuries, America has grown into a global example, welcoming millions seeking the rights imagined by those visionary men.
