Description
The 6-cent Gen. Douglas MacArthur commemorative postage stamp was first placed on sale at Norfolk, Virginia, on January 26, 1971.
General Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964) was one of the most powerful figures during World War II. During his tenure, he served in multiple capacities — the superintendent of West Point, the US Army's chief of staff, the supreme commander of Allied Powers in Japan, and the leader of the US-led coalition of U.N. forces in the Korean War.
The stamp was designed by Paul Calle and was issued in panes of fifty, with an initial printing of 135 million.
