3) 2 Thoreau Forever stamps (49 cents each) 2017

U.S. Postal Service® celebrates writer, philosopher and naturalist Henry David Thoreau on the bicentennial of his birth. Renowned for his book Walden, a complex and eloquent exploration of nature and society, Thoreau encourages readers to reconsider both their own lives and the world around them. He was a personal example of simple living, independence, a true legacy. On the left side of the stamp is a close view of Thoreau’s face, an oil-on-panel painting based on a famous 1856 daguerreotype by Benjamin Maxham. On the right side of the stamp is his own signature of his last name. Below the signature is a branch of sumac leaves. Sumac grew next to the door of Thoreau’s cabin at Walden Pond, and Thoreau mentions in his writings that he saw sumac sprouting among clear-cut stumps in the area. For a while Thoreau lived outside his hometown of Concord, Massachusetts, in a one-room house on a lake, where wrote, farmed, read, thought and took long walks. In Walden, published in 1854, Thoreau ponders the problems that result from materialism. Non smoking lot; FREE shipping Tags: letters office supplies pen pals
