Barack Obama - Election Night Photo with 5 Stamps

Barack Obama addressed his supporters at Grant Park in Chicago after winning the election on November 4, 2008 to become the 44th President of the United States. Shown here is a photo print of this historic event.  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 13-cents stamp issued in 1976 with the state flag of Illinois, where Obama chose to pursue a career in community organization and where he won a seat in the Illinois legislature, and eventually the US Senate.  The middle stamp depicts 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 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.
