American 1976 Bicentennial

I was wondering if there were any special pages for just the bicentennial stamps in 1976.

I do have some of the stamps in my regular album, and I also have some of the silver dollars in special holders.

Would like to make a special keepsake if possible of the stamps.

There were a lot. We had the sheets Scott 1686-89, Contributors to the Cause (I really liked these as a kid, took me collecting way later in life to complete them), Continental Army, Tea Party block, the definitives with the text around the corner...

I've never seen something just for them but it's an interesting idea for a topical collection. I bet Liberia put out stamps about it.

While the Bicentennial was in fact in 1976, the stamps relating to that momentous event were issued over the span of a few years, not just 1976.

The $2 bill was also reissued in 1976 as a Federal Reserve Note with a new design on the back, Trumbull's Declaration of Independence. Previously the $2 were issue as United States Notes with the last printing in 1966.

I mention the bill as there were many examples of the new bill with a stamp affixed and postmarked on the first day of release of the $2.

Ha ha, still for sale!

And I hadn't considered the state stamps but this one clearly is.
