United States 5-cent Postage Stamp, Woodrow Wilson
This item is a 5-cent United States postage stamp, predominantly blue or purplish-blue and depicting a portrait of Woodrow Wilson. The stamp's design features a central oval portrait of Wilson, framed by what appears to be a wreath or decorative border. Above the portrait, the words "UNITED STATES POSTAGE" are clearly visible. In the lower-left corner, the denomination "5¢" is prominently displayed. Below the portrait, a faint inscription is present, which likely identifies the subject as "WOODROW WILSON." The stamp exhibits a classic rectangular shape with perforated edges, indicating it was intended to be separated from a sheet of similar stamps. The overall condition shows signs of use or age, with several dark, irregular lines running vertically across the stamp, suggesting postmarks or markings applied during mail processing. The image quality is somewhat blurry, making it difficult to discern very fine details or specific manufacturing marks. However, the visible features suggest a standard production stamp from the early to mid-20th century. The paper appears slightly discolored or aged, consistent with its potential vintage. The printing quality seems adequate for a postage stamp of its era, with a clear depiction of the former president.
