Jefferson Memorial & Signature

Located on the south side of the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C., the Jefferson Memorial is one of the three memorials to famous American Presidents.  Built in the classical style that Jefferson preferred, the memorial overlooks the Potomac River and is surrounded by picturesque cherry trees.  Inside stands an 18-foot statue of Thomas Jefferson.  Quotations from his writings, including the Declaration of Independence, are etched on the four interior walls.  The building was dedicated on April 13, 1943 – Jefferson's 200th birthday.

This stamp design was also issued in sheet format (U.S. #1510).
