I couldn't find a definitive answer to this question online:

Are USPS Souvenir Sheets made for all stamps issued in a given year or just select issues?

I'm trying to find a Souvenir Sheet for the 2000 U.S. Scott 3413 $11.75 Landing on the Moon issue. Was there Souvenir Sheets ever produced for this issue?

Thanks for any insight into this.

Souvenir sheets are usually only made for special events, not for all stamps in a given year. See your Scott catalog for details

Thanks Peter. I looked throughout my 2022 United States Scott eCatalogue Vol. 1 but could only find a very brief definition in the glossary.

Which volume would have details of the Souvenir Sheets?

mmissinglink,
Do you mean "Souvenir page" or "Souvenir panel" instead?
"Souvenir sheet" has a distinct meaning in the hobby, typically a miniature sheet of some sort.
It might help clarify if you could post an example so there is no confusion in your question.

Cut from this press sheet of five (3409-34-13)?

These are USPS Souvenir Pages which are not issued for every stamp issue, but most. They were not issued for the Hologram space stamps of 2000. For space in 2000 it was just the telescope images.



Other associated with the Moon Landing:

Thank you to all including the images.

Apparently, the correct term I should have used is Souvenir Page. I've seen Souvenir Pages being described as "Souvenir Sheet" on several different websites and on eBay by a number of sellers......so it is confusing.

Am I incorrect to assume that there isn't a definitive resource which lists all Souvenir Pages?

Yes, you are incorrect.

The Scott US Specialize Stamp Catalog lists them in their own section. They are deep back of the book with the 2022 Catalog starting them "SP" on Page 995.
