With the issuance of four stamps in 2009 the U.S. Postal Service recognizes the 200th anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865), who rose from humble, frontier origins to become a prominent lawyer and politician and ultimately President of the United States. The original stamp art, created by Mark Summers, will be on exhibit at the National Postal Museum. Each stamp features a different aspect of Lincoln's life including Lincoln the "rail-splitter," Lincoln the lawyer, Lincoln the politician and Lincoln the President.
