On September 16, 2011, in Houston, Texas, the Postal Service issued a Barbara Jordan commemorative stamp in one design in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) pane of 20 stamps (Item 466200). The U.S. Postal Service honors Barbara Jordan, one of the most respected and influential politicians of the 20th century, as part of the Black Heritage Series; it is the 34th stamp in the series. Jordan captured the attention and admiration of the nation with her intelligence and integrity, eloquent oratory, ardent defense of the Constitution, and staunch advocacy rights for all Americans. The portrait featured on the stamp is an oil painting by Albert Slark, based on an undated black-and-white photograph of Jordan. Verso text appears on the back of the stamp pane. Art director Richard Sheaff designed the stamp. This listing is for a sheet of 20 Forever Stamps
