Printed in purple by the rotary process, and issued in sheets of 50 stamps.
This stamp was issued to commemorate the one-hundredth anniversary of the admission of Florida to statehood.
The stamp is 0.84 by 1.44 inches in dimension, arranged horizontally, printed in purple by the rotary process, and issued in sheets of 50 stamps. The central subject is a large reproduction of the original State seal. On the left of the seal appears the date, "1845," and on the right the date, "1945." In the lower left corner of the stamp the Gates of Saint Augustine are pictured, and in a corresponding position, at the right, is shown the State Capitol. The wording, "Florida Centennial," in dark Gothic is centered across the top of the stamp, and the wording, "3¢ United States Postage," appears horizontally in white Gothic on a dark background across the bottom of the stamp.
