Description: This artifact is an unsevered block of four United States postage stamps issued to honor the acclaimed modernist writer Marianne Moore. The stamps are arranged in a clean two-by-two block configuration with fully intact vertical and horizontal perforations. Each individual stamp features a detailed, full-color painted portrait of Moore during her later years, depicting her with vibrant auburn hair and her hand pensively resting near her chin. The layout features the poet's name elegantly typeset at the upper left, the denomination "25 USA" positioned at the upper right, and a descriptive subtitle block reading "American Poet 1887-1972" grounding the base. A deep navy blue background provides stark contrast for the central portrait, text, and clean white border margins.
Circa: 1990
Condition: Mint block of 4 with lower selvage traffic lights.
