Barack Obama - Official Photo Portrait with 5 Stamps
On January 14, 2009, Barack Obama's
official portrait was released. It was taken by veteran photographer Pete Souza. Shown here is a photo
print of the 44th President of the United States. Wall Art Collectibles
is proud to offer this exclusive,
collectible, historic piece of
presidential memorabilia. It's paired with five
uncancelled US stamps highlighting events in his life. On the left is a
7-cents Air Mail stamp for Hawaii statehood issued in 1959....Obama's
birth state. Following is the 4-cents stamp depicting the Lincoln Memorial.
It's one of the stamps issued in 1959 to celebrate the sesquicentennial
of Lincoln's birth. We chose this stamp knowing how much Obama admires
Lincoln, not to mention the Illinois connection. The middle stamp
issued in 2000 shows the White House in winter, where on January 20, 2009, the
First family took up residence. The next stamp was issued in 1953 and
commemorates the American Bar Association. Obama earned his law degree
from Harvard University in 1991, was the first black president of the
Harvard Law Review, and was a professor at the University of Chicago Law
School for twelve years. The final stamp was issued in 1954 and honors
Columbia
University, where Obama earned his undergraduate degree in
political science with a specialization of international relations.
Matted in blue, it will fit a standard 11x14
picture frame. ***Be sure to check out
