This official ArtCraft First Day Cover features the United States 15¢ Albert Einstein stamp issued March 4, 1979, in Princeton, New Jersey. The cachet displays a dramatic portrait of Einstein against a cosmic background with the equation E=Mc² and celebrates the 100th anniversary of his birth (1879-1955).
Einstein's theories of relativity fundamentally transformed modern physics and laid the groundwork for nuclear energy, space exploration, and countless technological advances of the 20th century. His work earned him the 1921 Nobel Prize and made him an enduring global symbol of scientific genius.
The ArtCraft design prominently labels Einstein the "Father of Atomic Science," a notable nod to both his theoretical contributions and their real-world consequences during the atomic age.
A crisp Princeton, NJ first-day postmark and excellent condition make this an attractive addition for collectors of science-themed stamps, Nobel laureates, or ArtCraft cachets.
