Missouri Statehood release arrives Aug. 10

The Missouri Statehood stamp features an image of a historic mill and covered bridge.

The Postal Service released its Missouri Statehood stamp Aug. 10.

The stamp marks the bicentennial of the Show-Me State’s admission to the Union in 1821.

An image of Bollinger’s Mill and the Burfordville covered bridge, two Civil War-era structures that are part of a state historic site, is featured.

Greg Breeding designed the stamp, using artwork created from a photograph by Charles Gurche.

The Forever stamp is available nationwide at Post Offices and usps.com.
