About This Stamp

Artist James Steinberg’s acrylic and gouache painting includes two elements associated with diabetes testing and research — a microscope and a test tube containing blood. Featuring the phrase “Know More About Diabetes,” the design conveys the importance of diabetes awareness and early detection of the disease. This was Steinberg’s first project for the Postal Service.
