Wildflowers of America - Jack-in-the-Pulpit 1992
This cover features a digitally-rendered pixelated wildflower cachet by Technical FDOI complementing the 29-cent Jack-in-the-Pulpit stamp from the 1992 Wildflowers of America series. The pictorial postmark from Columbus, Ohio includes a sailing ship referencing the Columbus quincentenary, and was applied during the A.F.D.C.S. convention station on July 24, 1992. The combination of contemporary digital art styling with traditional botanical subjects reflects the design approach of this popular wildflower commemorative series.
