About the stamp design: Pictures a photograph by nature and garden photographer Allen Rokach (1941-2021).

First Day City: The First Day of Issue Ceremony was held at the Great American Stamp Show in Hartford, Connecticut.
About the Autumn Colors set: Includes 10 different designs featuring photographs by nature and garden photographer Allen Rokach (1941-2021). Each photograph was taken at a different location across the United States, a perfect way to emphasize the nationwide beauty of autumn.
History the stamp represents: Leaf peeping is the nickname given for the activity of traveling to see autumn colors in areas known for their fall foliage. Some of the top destinations for leaf peeping in the United States are New England, the Appalachian Mountains, the Pacific Northwest, and upper Midwest.
Fall is a wonderful time to enjoy the outdoors. The heat of summer has dissipated, but the chill of winter has not quite appeared. A light jacket is all you need to take in the beauty of autumn leaves. New York is one of the most-visited states during leaf-peeping season. The Adirondack and Catskill Mountains, Finger Lakes, and even New York City, all boast a wide range of opportunities for outdoor recreation in the fall. The Adirondacks reach peak color earlier in the season, so it’s best to visit there first. Some ski resorts have scenic chairlift or gondola rides in the fall. This allows you to enjoy views from the tops of mountains without having to hike to the summit yourself. New York City and Long island are the last places in New York State to experience peak autumn colors. If you plan ahead, you can enjoy leaf peeping for the entire season in just one state.
Whether you leaf peep in New York or another state, there’s many wonderful places to make the most of autumn in the United States.
