About Stamp

This special postage stamp was issued in honor of Susan B. Anthony in connection with the sixteenth anniversary of the ratification of the nineteenth amendment granting suffrage to women.

The stamp is of the ordinary size, 0.75 by 0.87 inch in dimension, arranged vertically. It is inclosed in a double-line border and is printed in purple. In a horizontal panel with dark ground across the top of the stamp is the wording "U.S. Postage" in white Roman. The central design is a portrait of Susan B. Anthony looking to the left. The portrait is inclosed in an oval frame with white edges and dark ground. On a curved ribbon with white ground at the base of the portrait is the name "Susan B. Anthony", in dark Gothic. In a narrow panel with dark ground along the lower edge of the stamp is the inscription reading "Suffrage for Women", in white Gothic. Immediately above, on either side, within circular panels with white edges and dark ground is the denomination designation "3¢" in white. The stamp was printed by the rotary process and was issued in sheets of 100 stamps.

The stamp was first offered for sale at the Washington, D.C., post office on August 26, 1936.
