Forever® Stamp

In 2010 the U.S. Postal Service will reissue the Forever Stamp™. Forever Stamps are always equal in value to the then-current First-Class Mail one-ounce single-piece letter price. The stamp art depicts the Liberty Bell, which is perhaps the most prominent and recognizable symbol associated with American independence. Over the years, the historic significance of the bell’s message has transcended our national borders, and today the Liberty Bell is an international icon of freedom. Replicas of the Liberty Bell exist in all fifty states and the District of Columbia.

The stamp art features a computer-generated image of the Liberty Bell by nationally acclaimed artist Tom Engeman of Bethany Beach, Delaware. His previous projects for the Postal Service include stamped cards for Carlsbad Caverns National Park (2002), Ohio University (2003), and Columbia University (2003), as well as the 2003 American Eagle definitive stamp, the National World War II Memorial stamp (2004), and the Flags of Our Nation series, which began in 2008.
