This stamp was issued to commemorate one hundred years of progress of American women.
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 subjects.
The central design is composed of portraits of Elizabeth Stanton, Carrie C. Catt, and Lucretia Mott, arranged from left to right in ovals on a dark background, above which is the white Gothic lettering "United States Postage." Below the central design is a light ribbon on which is the dark modified Roman wording "100 Years of Progress of Women 1848–1948," and at each end of this ribbon is the denomination "3¢" in white Gothic.
The stamp was first placed on sale at Seneca Falls, N.Y., on July 19, 1948.
