This maximum card features a full-color photograph of a giant panda sitting in a grassy area and eating bamboo. The photograph captures the panda's distinctive black-and-white fur and natural habitat. The stamp in the lower right corner is a 29-cent USA stamp depicting a stylized illustration of a giant panda with bamboo, matching the photograph. The pictorial first-day cancellation includes line art of a panda and reads 'FIRST DAY OF ISSUE, Oct. 1, 1992, New Orleans, LA.'
