Notes
Honors civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., American, 1929 - 1968. A trace of brightness on the horizon represents hope in this painting to commemorate Martin Luther King and his immortal 1963 speech. This stamp also includes one authentic but easily overlooked detail: King is wearing the official badge of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
