Sunday Stamps - Celebrations: USA

The old film Citizen Kane was on the UK TV recently - I missed it. 

However I remember the Celebrate the Century series of stamps from the USA. Among others these included - 

USA - 18 February 1999

What I liked about the stamps which celebrated the 1940s was the information on the back of each stamp - 

You will  have to match the info to the individual stamps. For other celebrations please check out the links at Fireworks at Sunday Stamps

Sunday Stamps - Celebrations: USA

The USA Celebrate the Century series seemed an ideal place to go this week yet I didn't expect the three stamps I've chosen to relate to years before I was born,

USA - 28 May 1998

But the years celebrated for Babe Ruth were the 1920s, as it was also for The Gatsby Style - 

USA - 28 May 1998

However it is the Tin Lizzie for the 1900s that I think deserves pride of place,

USA - 3 February 1998

The Model T Ford, that 4 cylinder, 20 horsepower car, also earned the title in 1999 of 'The Car of the Twentieth Century'.
