1981 Desert Cactus Plate Block Of 4 20c Stamps - Sc 1942-1945 - CW208a
This series of stamps pays tribute to the species of plants that have adapted over the eons to withstand the harsh environment of the desert. Surviving through extremes of temperature and very little rainfall, the cactus has adapted and flourished. Pictured are the Barrel Cactus, Agave, Beavertail Cactus, and the Saguaro. The latter is the largest cactus native to North America - often reaching a height of 60 feet and a weight of more than three tons.
These are real USPS postage stamps that are accepted by the USA Postal Service as payment for mail posted in the USA however the total rates on the stamps posted must equal or exceed the current appropriate postal mailing rate or extra postage must be paid.
