Description

You are bidding on history! This  is a framed U.S. Postal panel from 1979 for the issue of the Seeing For Me stamp with a block of four stamps attached.


In 1979 -- the 50th anniversary of the founding of The Seeing Eye -- a 15-cent "Seeing For Me" stamp was issued. Collected here and preserved in a beautiful black, 8 x 10 inch black frame are 4 stamps and a USPS notice issuing the stamps. Designed by illustrator Joseph Csatari, the commemorative stamps say "USA 15c" on the top and "Seeing For Me" on the bottom.  The picture on the stamp shows the arm and leg of a man holding the harness of his German shepherd guide dog.
