About This Stamp

The Postal Service issued an 11.75-dollar Landing on the Moon souvenir sheet with one commemorative stamp in Anaheim, California, on July 8, 2000. The stamp was designed by Richard Sheaff of Scottsdale, Arizona.

This sheet features a single stamp with a hologram of a lunar lander based on computer and three-dimensional models from NASA. The selvage photograph was taken by astronaut John W. Young during the Apollo 16 mission in April 1972. It depicts astronaut Charles M. Duke, Jr., on the surface of the moon with a lunar rover in the background.
