This Listing is for ONE NEW Sheet of 20 Oscar Micheaux 44-Cent Black Heritage Stamps from 2010.Fresh, Mint Condition.On June 22, 2010 in New York, NY, the U.S. Postal Service issued this 44-cent Oscar Micheaux commemorative self-adhesive stamp. The stamp is the 33rd stamp in the Black Heritage series, and features a stylized portrait of Oscar Micheaux by artist Gary Kelley of Cedar Falls, IA. The artwork is based on one of the few surviving photographs of Micheaux - a portrait that appeared in his 1913 novel The Conquest .Filmmaker Oscar Micheaux wrote, directed, produced and distributed more than forty movies during the first half of the twentieth century. An ambitious larger-than-life figure, Micheaux thrived at a time when African-American filmmakers were rare, venues for their work were scarce, and support from the industry did not exist. Micheaux's entrepreneurial spirit and independent vision continues to inspire new generations of filmmakers and artists.Scott # 4464Free Shipping in the U.S. by USPS First Class
