Description: SCOTT #1048 PAUL REVEREPATRIOT & SILVERSMITH - LIBERTY SERIES 1958 - MINT NH - (BEP) Paul Revere Original Gum Scott # 1048 25c Multicolored Issue 1958Issue Date: April 18, 1958 City: Boston, MA Printed by: Bureau of Engraving and Printing Printing Method: Rotary Press Perforations: 11 x 10½ Color: Green The image of Paul Revere on U.S. #1048 is based on an 1813 painting by Gilbert Stuart. Paul Revere (1735-1818) American Patriot and Silversmith Born in Boston, Paul Revere was a leader in the patriot group known as The Sons of Liberty, whose members participated in the Boston Tea Party. History remembers Revere for his ride from Charlestown to Lexington and then on to Concord on April 18, 1775, to warn the local militia that the British were coming. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow memorializes this ride in the poem, “Paul Revere’s Ride.” Revere was also an outstanding silversmith (his graceful designs are still copied today), an engraver, and the first American to discover how to roll sheet copper. The Liberty Series Issued to replace the 1938 Presidential series, this patriotic set of stamps honors guardians of freedom throughout U.S. history. Eighteenth century America is represented by Revolutionary War heroes and statesmen such as Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Henry, Jay, and Revere. Leaders of the 19th century including Monroe, Lincoln, Lee, Harrison, and Susan B. Anthony make an appearance. The 20th century is represented by Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and General Pershing. The Liberty Series also features famous locations important to America’s democratic history, such as Bunker Hill, Independence Hall, and the Alamo.
