Printed by the rotary process, in purple, electric-eye perforated, and issued in sheets of 50.
This stamp was issued to commemorate the one-hundredth anniversary of the admission of Wisconsin to the Union.
The stamp is 0.84 by 1.44 inches in dimension, arranged horizontally, printed by the rotary process, in purple, electric-eye perforated, and issued in sheets of 50. The central design consists of a reproduction of the State Capitol Building to the right of a scroll showing an outline map of the State around which is the wording "Wisconsin Centennial 1848–1948," in dark Gothic. Directly above the capitol in the same style lettering is the word "Forward." Across the bottom of the stamp appears "United States Postage 3¢" in white Gothic.
This stamp was first placed on sale at Madison, Wis., on May 29, 1948.
