Printed by the rotary process in green, electric-eye perforated, and issued in sheets of 50 subjects.
This special stamp was issued in honor of the 4-H Club movement.
The stamp is 0.84 by 1.44 inches in dimension, arranged horizontally, printed by the rotary process in green, electric-eye perforated, and issued in sheets of 50.
The central design of the stamp depicts a group of typical farm buildings at the left, while in the center appears the symbolic four-leaf clover, with the letter "H" in white face Gothic, superimposed on each of the four leaves, representing head, heart, hands, and health. Directly beneath this symbol is inscribed: "The 4-H Clubs," in dark Gothic. Dominating the right side of the design are a teen-age boy and girl, facing the club symbol. In the lower left corner of the design the denomination "3¢" is shown in shaded modified Gothic. A solid dark panel forms the top of the stamp in which appears the wording: "To Make The Best Better" in white face Roman. The bottom of the stamp is also formed by a solid dark panel on which appears the wording "United States Postage" in white face Roman.
The stamp was first placed on sale at Springfield, Ohio, on January 15, 1952.
