A portrait of MLK

"Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity."

"There is nothing more dangerous than to build a society, with a large segment of people in that society, who feel that they have no stake in it; who feel that they have nothing to lose. People who have a stake in their society, protect that society, but when they don't have it, they unconsciously want to destroy it." (MLK)

This MLK commemorative stamp was issued January 13, 1979. The stamp was issued three days before King's Birthday. No person can be commerted on a U.S. stamp unless you are a president and dead for ten years.
