    Beautiful Mint Giant Magnolias U.S. Postage Stamps #3872 Booklet of 20 $.37 Stamps
    Lovely booklet of vintage stamps featuring artwork by artist Martin Johnson Heade. I have many of these for sale.
    The USPS issued this stamp one day after Heade’s 185th birthday. The painting on the stamp is currently in the collection of the National Gallery of Art. It’s considered one of his best works. According to the museum, “Certainly works such as Giant Magnolias on a Blue Velvet Cloth, with their striking contrasts of brilliantly lit flowers and leaves set against a dark background, are among the most original still lifes of the nineteenth century.”
    A fantastic addition to a collection, or could be used as fun vintage postage (for a wedding, perhaps?) or given as a gift to the flower or artist buff in your life.
    I ship out same day.
