The Department issued a 4-cent stamp commemorating the 50th anniversary of Arizona Statehood on February 14, 1962. The central subject of the stamp is a flowering arm of the giant saguaro cactus, the bearer of the State flower. A full grown saguaro is silhouetted in the foreground, with the moon behind a cloud bank reflecting on the valley below to create a typical desert night scene.
