photograph: Crops of the Americas (Item #675840)
"Artist Steve Buchanan,
of Winsted, Connecticut, created each of the five stamp designs. As
reference, he used slide photographs made by his wife Rita
Buchanan's research in the late 1970s on indigenous agricultural
methods in the southwestern United States. The crops depicted in the
stamps—corn, chili peppers, beans,
squashes, and sunflowers—had been
cultivated in the Americas for centuries when Europeans first
arrived in the New World." (USPS) UPU information:
