Description: USPS First Day of Issue Ceremony Program for the dedication of Scott #2449 25c Marianne Moore Stamp, Literary Arts Series, FDOI, April 18, 1990, Brooklyn, New York. The cover of this program makes her look overly serious, but the program notes that "While living in Brooklyn, New York, she developed a deep fondness for the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team" and quotes the first verse from her poem "Baseball and Writing." I recall that Ford Motor Company solicited from her potential names for the upcoming Edsel. One of those names was "Utopian Turtletopper." The program measures 9" x 6".
