2007 Bighorn Sheep Plate Block of 4 17c Postage Stamps - MNH, OG - Sc# 4138
On May 14, 2007 in Washington DC, the USPS issued a stamp that featured a stylized drawing of a bighorn sheep (Ovis Canadensis). This kind of sheep is found from southwestern Canada to northern Mexico; its range includes the colder, higher elevations of the Rocky Mountains and some of the hottest, most arid regions of the American Southwest and Mexico. Sure-footed and swift climbers, bighorn sheep zigzag up and down cliff faces with ease. They are highly gregarious animals, sometimes forming groups of more than 50 animals. To create the image on the stamp, artist Nancy Stahl worked from photographs of bighorn sheep.
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.
The stamp set shown in the picture is a stock photo and is likely not a picture of the exact stamp set you will receive and it may differ in plate number and/or orientation. However the item you will receive will be similar including having a plate number (if one is present in the photos) and the same number of stamps. Stamps titled as MNH, OG will have no significant creases or unnatural gum disturbances unless otherwise noted.
