Quilts of Gee's Bend Stamps
The Postal ServiceTM will issue 39-cent Quilts of Gee's
Bend commemorative stamps in 10 designs in a pressure-
sensitive adhesive (PSA) double-sided booklet of
20 stamps (Item 674500) on August 24, 2006, in Des
Plaines, Illinois (APS Stamp Show). The stamps, designed
by Derry Noyes of Washington, DC, go on sale nationwide
on August 25, 2006.
These stamps are the sixth in the American Treasures series that showcases beautiful works of American fine art
and crafts.
Art director Derry Noyes chose photographs of ten quilts
created, between circa 1940 and 2001, by African-
American women in Gee's Bend, Alabama. Created for the
practical purpose of keeping warm, the quilts of Gee's Bend
are noted for their unexpected color combinations, bold
patterns, and improvised designs. The variety of materials
with which they are made - including old dresses and
worn-out work clothes - also demonstrate great ingenuity.
How to Order First Day of Issue Postmark
Customers have 30 days to obtain the first day of issue
postmark by mail. They may purchase new stamps at their
local Post OfficeTM, by telephone at 800-STAMP-24, and at
The Postal Store Web site at www.usps.com/shop. They
should affix the stamps to envelopes of their choice, address the envelopes (to themselves or others), and place

but who wish to obtain the postmark, may submit a
mail order request. Pictorial postmarks are available only
