From the Postal Bulletin:

On February 21, 2025, in San Diego, CA, the United States Postal Service® will issue the American Vistas stamps (Non-denominated priced at the Presorted Standard Rate of 10 cents) in two designs, in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) coil of 3,000 stamps (Item 751900) and coil of 10,000 stamps (Item 762100). These stamps will go on sale nationwide February 21, 2025, and must not be sold or cancelled before the first-day-of-issue.

Two new Presorted Standard stamps will be issued for use by bulk mailers and sold in self-adhesive coils of 3,000 and 10,000. American Vistas features illustrations of two iconic American landscapes: mountains and beach. The stylized and minimalist scenes were created as vector illustrations, which were then turned into screen prints, using just three colors: yellow, blue, and navy. Art director Greg Breeding designed the stamps using existing artwork by DKNG Studios.

No automatic distribution.

  1. From Post Bull 09 JAN: USPS# Cl-3K 7519xx, Cl-10K 7621xx. Only 4-Bar FDoI at the San Diego Stamp Show http://sandiegostampshow.net Maybe a Show Cancel similar to prior years? Maybe a PNC-25 from the 3K coil. ( 751903 $2.50 ? ) ( both 3K and 10K by Ashton-Potter… )

    • Yes. Click on “USPS Order Numbers” on the U.S. 2025 Stamp Program listing for this issue and you’ll find:

      762103 Strip of 27 (from 10K coil), $2.70
      762104 Coil of 10,000, $1,000.00

      751903 Strip of 27 (from 3K coil), $2.70
      751904 Coil of 3,000, $300.00
      751916 First Day Cover (set of 2), $2.76

      • Which website? And did you plug in those order numbers into the search box on the USPS.com site? I don’t think you’ll find them any other way. Or you may have to telephone.

  2. I purchased fdc’s of this issue as well as strips of stamps.
    The fdc’s are shipped in an envelope containing one of each stamped cover.
    One of the package contained two covers with the same stamp.
    I notice the strips don’t contain pairs of both stamps.

    • In the package with two covers with the same stamp, were you missing one of the stamps or did SFS give you an extra FDC? If missing one, the procedure for fixing a problem is on the invoice.

  3. The envelope had two fdc but they each had same American Vista stamp.
    I was sending in covers I had applied stamps to so I made a couple of extra covers to complete the sets.
