2021 Missouri Statehood

• Commemorates 200th anniversary of Missouri’s statehood

Stamp Category:  Commemorative
Value:  55¢ First Class Mail Rate (Forever)
First Day of Issue: August 10, 2021
First Day City:  Jefferson City, Missouri
Quantity Issued:  18,000,000
Printed by:  Banknote Corporation of America
Printing Method:  Offset, Microprint
Format:  Panes of 20
Tagging:  Phosphor, Block Tag

Why the stamp was issued:  To honor the bicentennial of Missouri becoming the 24th state in the Union.

About the stamp design:  Pictures a photograph of Bollinger Mill State Historic Site’s two most famous landmarks: a multi-story mill which dates back to the Civil War, and Burfordville Covered Bridge (Missouri’s oldest covered bridge and one of only four remaining in the state). Photo by Charles Gurche, who began his photography career in Missouri.

First Day City:  First Day of Issue Ceremony held at the Missouri State Capitol in Jefferson City, Missouri.

History the stamp represents:  On August 10, 1821, Missouri became the 24th state in the Union. The territory had originally been acquired as part of the 1803 Louisiana Purchase which was later divided up. In 2021, the USPS celebrated the 200th anniversary of Missouri’s statehood on a Forever stamp.

Throughout history, Missouri has become well-known for a number of things. It is home to the city of St. Louis, the scenic Ozarks, and, of course, the Missouri River. Missouri (along with Tennessee) is bordered by more states than any other – a total of eight. Because of its location, Missouri played a big role in the exploration and settlement of the West. The Pony Express, Oregon Trail, Santa Fe Trail, and California Trail all started in Missouri. Today, its important role in westward expansion is honored by the St. Louis Gateway Arch.

Over the years, Missouri has absorbed elements of both Midwestern and Southern cultures. This has led to an eclectic mix of music, culinary traditions (think Kansas City -and St. Louis-style barbeques), and more. Missouri is also known for being a major brewing state and is home to America’s largest beer producer, Anheuser-Busch. Ultimately, whether you’re looking for good food and music, beautiful scenery, or fascinating history, Missouri is the perfect state to visit.
