The stamps honor the Mississippi River, showcasing scenic photographs from different states along its course.
The reverse side of the stamp pane features a map of the central U.S., depicting the river’s course and major tributaries.
The First Day of Issue Ceremony took place in Memphis, Tennessee, at Beale Street Landing with a view of the river.
The Mississippi River, the second-longest in North America, spans 2,340 miles, impacting 10 states on its journey to the Gulf.
Issued in 2022, the set of 10 Forever stamps captures both the serene Upper Mississippi and the bustling Lower Mississippi.
Designs include views of the Great River Road, a vintage steamboat, a modern barge, and a bridge spanning the river.
The river played a vital role in supporting early Native Americans, European settlers, and continues to influence modern communities.
