Issued to honor Nancy Reagan, this commemorative Forever stamp pays tribute to her influential role as First Lady of the United States.

The stamp features an elegant oil painting based on her 1987 official White House portrait by Aaron Shikler, showing Nancy Reagan in her iconic red gown by designer James Galanos — a graceful representation of her enduring style and presence.

The First Day of Issue ceremony was held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, California, a fitting location to celebrate her legacy.

As First Lady, born Anne Frances Robbins, Nancy Reagan left a lasting mark on the nation through her advocacy and initiatives. She spearheaded significant White House restorations and led the impactful “Just Say No” campaign, a cornerstone in the fight against youth drug abuse, shaping public health and cultural awareness for generations.
