 Commemorative Forever Stamp Honoring Barbara Bush's Centennial YearSource: Excerpts from "Barbara Bush Centennial Forever Stamp" (USPS Unveils Barbara Bush Stamp)Executive Summary:The U.S. Postal Service is issuing a commemorative Forever stamp to celebrate the centennial year of former first lady Barbara Bush's birth. The stamp design, based on her 2005 White House portrait, was unveiled at the White House on May 10, 2024. The official dedication ceremony will take place on June 10, 2025, in Kennebunkport, Maine, coinciding with the 100th anniversary of her birth. The stamp honors her legacy as a beloved first lady, her unwavering support for her family, and her significant commitment to literacy.Key Themes and Ideas:
  • Centennial Recognition: The primary purpose of the stamp is to mark the 100th anniversary of Barbara Bush's birth and the culmination of her centennial year. The dedication ceremony on June 10, 2025, specifically highlights this milestone.
  • Honoring a Remarkable American: The stamp recognizes Barbara Bush not just as a first lady, but as an individual with a significant personal legacy. Doug Tulino, acting postmaster general, stated, "Today we recognize Mrs. Bush not only as a beloved first lady, but as a remarkable American in her own right." He further noted, "She charted a legacy for herself, and did it with conviction, determination, and compassion."
  • Commitment to Literacy: A central theme highlighted is Barbara Bush's dedication to literacy. Her daughter, Dorothy "Doro" Bush Koch, emphasized this, stating that the stamp serves as a reminder of her mother's "unwavering commitment to solve the problems of today by ensuring that every man, woman and child has the opportunity to read, write and comprehend." This commitment was motivated, in part, by her son Neil's dyslexia and led to her writing a children's book with proceeds supporting literacy programs.
  • Family Support and Dedication: The source highlights Barbara Bush's unwavering support for her husband's extensive political career and their family. The text notes her 54 years of campaigning for her family and allies, and how the Bushes "moved around 30 times as the family followed Mr. Bush's military, business and political pursuits, with Mrs. Bush always steadfast in support of her husband and children."
  • Legacy and Enduring Memory: The stamp is intended to serve as a lasting reminder of Barbara Bush's character and impact.
