A view of the National Capitol Building forms a background for the figures. Reading across the top of the stamp is the lettering "Women In Our Armed Services", in dark modified Roman. The wording "United States of America", in dark Roman, the word, "Postage", in dark Gothic, and the denomination "3¢" in white face modified Roman are placed in an ornamental ribbon across the bottom of the stamp.
