These stamps were issued to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of the entry of General Stephen Watts Kearny into Santa Fe.
Each stamp is 0.84 by 1.44 inches in dimension, arranged horizontally and printed in a maroon color. The central design portrays the raising of the American flag over the governor’s palace at Santa Fe in 1846. In the upper left corner is the wording “Stephen Watts Kearny Expedition” in three lines of dark Gothic lettering. Centered below the vignette in the same style of lettering and numerals is “1846 Entry into Santa Fe 1946.” At the extreme right in a shaded vertical panel appears “U. S. Postage” in dark face Gothic and below this wording in the same panel is the denomination “3” in white face Gothic.
