It replaced the 1986 $1 Bernard Revel stamp, which had stirred controversy after it was discovered it contained a secret mark. This stamp also followed a pattern the USPS had been using for several years, especially within the Great Americans Series – honoring a university with a stamp honoring a person as well. This came about because the Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee had instituted a new rule in the 1960s, prohibiting any more stamps honoring specific schools, because there are so many, and some would be bound to be overlooked. So, from time to time, the USPS would issue a stamp picturing a person with a connection to one of these schools in an anniversary year. In this case, Johns Hopkins was featured on a stamp marking the 100th anniversary of the institution which bears his name. Calls for the stamp began a few years earlier, largely from the institution’s public affairs director and president. They gained support from several Congressmen who had benefitted from surgical techniques pioneered at Johns Hopkins. Powered By 3Dsellers.com - Try for Free!
