There's a fairly new series of stamps out in the US called, "Made in America, Building a Nation".  They're lovely black and white photos of people working.  Anyone else notice the one of a woman beaming a warp?

Thanks for letting us know about that.  They are Forever stamps that you can buy from usps.com/shop in sets of 12.  Photos are by Lewis Hine.  Three of the twelve photos depict women in the workplace.  A millinery apprentice, a linotype operator, and a textile worker (working on a warp).

I have to get these for my next guild newsletter mailing!

Too bad only 3 members out of nearly 50 get it snail-mail.

I had seen this thread before I went to the P.O. today - I would have gotten these stamps!
