Description

The Postal Service commemorated the bicentennial of the state of Vermont with a 29-cent commemorative stamp issued on March 1, 1991, in Bennington, Vermont. The stamp design features rows of tilled soil and a brick-red farmhouse in the foreground with rolling, green hills and mountains in the background.

Designed by noted Vermont artist Sabra Field, the stamps were produced in the photogravure process by the American Bank Note Company, and issued in panes of fifty.
