USPS to release stamps, booklet to mark 250th anniversary

"...The first release — a 32-page booklet titled “Putting a Stamp on the American Experience” ...Both the booklet and pane are scheduled to be released in July and will be available at Post Offices and usps.com.

On July 26, 1775, the Second Continental Congress established “a line of posts” from Maine to Georgia to create a network of communications that kept Colonists’ messages from falling into the British Crown’s hands.

This postal system later became the Post Office Department and then the U.S. Postal Service.
