29 Cent USA Tulip Postage Stamp

The item is a United States postage stamp, specifically a 29-cent stamp featuring a red tulip with green leaves against a light yellow background. The stamp displays a standard perforated edge, typical of traditional postage stamps, suggesting it is either a genuine stamp or a reproduction intended to mimic one. The denomination '29 USA' is clearly visible in the upper left corner. The primary motif is a single, upright red tulip bud with two distinct green leaves emerging from its base. The colors appear vibrant and well-preserved. The stamp is presented within clear protective packaging, likely cellophane or a similar plastic polymer, which suggests it is uncirculated and intended for collection or display rather than immediate postal use. The condition appears to be excellent, with no visible signs of damage, creasing, fading, or wear. The crispness of the image and the intact perforations indicate it is either mint condition or a very high-quality replica. Due to the 'USA' designation and the 29-cent denomination, this stamp likely dates from the early 1990s, as the postal rate for a first-class letter in the U.S. was 29 cents from February 1991 to January 1995. There are no obvious maker's marks or signatures visible on the stamp itself in the provided image, but the overall presentation points to a standard, mass-produced philatelic item.
