This release celebrates the American spirit of innovation with a pane of 20 stamps featuring five different designs, each representing an area in which U.S. scientists and engineers have made significant contributions: computing, biomedicine, genome sequencing, robotics and solar technology.
The American Philatelic Society will send a First Day Cover (designed by the AFDC), with a Bellefonte, Pennsylvania postmark, which is considered the official post office for the Innovation stamp.
