Seller's description

WOOD MOUNTED RUBBER STAMP

Old Man of the Mountains
Vintage 3 cent postage stamp.
STAMPED IMAGE SIZE: 1 X 1 3/4 INCHES

I made this stamp from the actual original vintage 3 cent postage stamp. Obviously that was a while ago ! The Old Man of the Mountains' is one of the most iconic images in New Hampshire. A few years ago much of the stone image broke away from the cliff, just from natural weathering, but leaving many of us in New Hampshire and New England very sad. Lucky for us many images remain of this Old Man keeping him treasured and remembered always.

The Daniel Webster quote:
Men hang out their signs indicative of their respective trades. Shoemakers hang a gigantic shoe; jewelers a monster watch, even the dentist hangs out a gold tooth; but up in Franconia Mountains God Almighty has hung out a Sign to Show that in New England He Makes Men
Daniel Webster
(and of course he makes pretty great women here too- not sure what that rock would look like !)

Enjoy endless stamping pleasure with our original designs. Each stamp is deeply etched in natural rubber and affixed to a hardwood block in our home studio.
