Peterson philatelic question that is often overlooked is the question of the origin of stamp designs. Most adult collectors Are aware that they Are neither brought by the Stork nor found under cabbage plants but relatively few know the background of topic Sand designs. The . Issues will serve As a Good basis for discussion to begin with the Post office department normally sets a limit on the number of commemorative stamp issues to be issued during year. In the past this has been a conservative 25 to 30 issues once the number is fixed a determination is made As to which events or persons shall be honoured. Usually priority is Given to events of National significance marking a key anniversary the Centenary of the civil War the 200th anniversary of the declaration of Independence or the Cen Tenary of . Postage Stamps. Stamps Are also planned for themes which the National government wishes to popularize during the year such As this year s Law and order and Register and vote issues. There Are certain issues which have become an an Nual series such As the Christmas stamp american paintings and american  organizations Are Quick to remind the Post office department of their birthday celebrations. We have had Many is sues of this nature commemorating the american automobile association the american chemical society and most recently the Lions club. Cities and states submit their requests for Stamps honouring native sons and local anniversaries which Are generally Given the support of the congressmen concerned. Finally Small groups and individuals Send their requests for commemorative Stamps that Honor particular people topics or activities. All these requests Are considered by a group of citizen chosen to assist the postmaster general in selection of stamp topics and designs. The group known As the citizens stamp advisory committee is constituted annually. It includes artists printers historians and stamp collectors in order to provide proper evaluation of topic significance artistic Merit of design technical considerations of engraving and printing plus the important Factor of collector Appeal. The committee is an advisory body Only. It May recommend it sown ideas for stamp topics As Well As passing on other recommendations which have been submitted. Once the postmaster general selects the topics one or More artists Are commissioned to submit rough designs. In some cases the artist develops the entire design and in others he May be Given suggested or recommended themes to work into the , the committee makes its recommendations to the Post master general who accepts or rejects the design. The accepted design is resubmitted in finished form then turned Over to the engravers who have the task of reducing it to stamp size suitable Tor press reproduction. After any number of revisions the stamp is ready to go to  countries have similar methods of selecting stamp topics and designs. Many like West Germany also have advisory committees. Artists May be Given specific commissions or in some cases submit their designs in open competitions. In some cases foreign postal administrations have even livened up their Stamps by selecting designs by school children such As the 1967 Christ Mas Stamps from great Britain or the 1967 East German series of drawings by 6-year-olds.the designs reflect the spirit of the country probably More so than the topics themselves. Certainly it is often possible for inexperienced collector to Tell the origin of a stamp from across the room merely by color Type of lettering the artistic style an Overall appearance. These Little bits of paper Are to a great de Gree the Public image of the country they represent. Two countries have announced stamp issues to Honor Chelate Martin Luther King or. King was not Only a renowned figure in his own country he was also a hero to Many inthe rest of the world particularly in the newly developing countries. He was a International celebrity even before he was honoured with the 1984 Nobel peace prize.
