The Post Office Department issued a 5-cent stamp commemorating the 75th anniversary of the General Federation of Women's Clubs on September 12, 1966, in New York City, where the federation was created.
The stamp honors 11 million women who are members of U.S. clubs, oversea clubs, and associate organizations. The far-flung programs of the federation range from aiding school dropouts to promoting traffic safety and from natural resource conservation to encouraging international understanding. Designed by Charles Henry Carter of New York City.
