On February 21, 2025, in San Diego, CA, the United States Postal Service® will issue the American Vistas stamps (Non-denominated priced at the Presorted Standard Rate of 10 cents) in two designs, in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) coil of 3,000 stamps (Item 751900) and coil of 10,000 stamps (Item 762100). These stamps will go on sale nationwide February 21, 2025, and must not be sold or cancelled before the first-day-of-issue.
Two new Presorted Standard stamps will be issued for use by bulk mailers and sold in self-adhesive coils of 3,000 and 10,000. American Vistas features illustrations of two iconic American landscapes: mountains and beach. The stylized and minimalist scenes were created as vector illustrations, which were then turned into screen prints, using just three colors: yellow, blue, and navy. Art director Greg Breeding designed the stamps using existing artwork by DKNG Studios.
Stamp Fulfillment Services will not make an automatic push distribution to Post Offices. Post Offices may begin ordering stamps before the first-day-of-issue through SFS Web at sfsweb.usps.gov/sfsweb.
