1962 4¢ Dag Hammarskjold

Issue Date: November 16, 1962
City: Washington, D.C.
Quantity: 40,270,000
Printed By: Bureau of Engraving and Printing
Printing Method: Giori Press
Perforations: 11

U.S. #1204 was a Special Issue, ordered by Postmaster General J. Edward Day in response to an error on U.S. #1203. After a color invert on the yellow background was found on the 1962 Dag Hammarskjold stamp, Day ordered a reprinting of the stamp with the error. A printing of 40 million stamps was made so that the error would not be regarded as a valuable rarity. The special printing was called Day's Folly.
