Face Value 10 Cents | 1974 | Scott 1526
The woods are lovely, dark and deep…. Winner of four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry, Robert Frost (1873-1963) was honored on this 1974 US Postage Stamp. The Poet Laureate of Vermont and recipient of the Congressional Gold Medal, Frost’s personal life was filled with loss and grief, and he suffered bouts of depression himself.
This commemorative stamp makes the perfect inspirational addition to your outgoing letters to budding authors and shows your addressee your love of literature. Your mail has miles to go before it sleeps, so why not let Frost help get it to its destination?
Interested in more literature stamps to pair with these for postage? Check out our other vintage stamp listings. These vintage stamps can still be used to pay postage on current mail (using additional postage as needed to make up the current first-class rate). All are mint with full gum on reverse; however, due to the age of the stamps, we recommend use of a damp sponge instead of licking the back, or we might recommend using a dab of a permanent glue stick before mailing.
