Frida Kahlo Honored with U.S. Postage Stamp

Best known for her striking self-portraits, Frida Kahlo is the first Latina ever to be honored with an U.S. postage stamp. In 2001,The United States Postal Service contacted the artist, Delgado to create a tribute on a very limited commemorative cachet which enhances her works and stamp. He incorporated several of her images from numerous paintings into an original and unquie design. Then this was produced into an limited edition of only 1000 worldwide. Each is signed and numbered by Delgado. Each cachet was hand stamped by the USPO showing the date of Ist release and each contains the stamp honoring Frida.
