2000 UN in the 21st Century
These sheets were designed by artist Wilson McLean. During his long and successful career, McLean has done artwork for advertising agencies, publishing houses, and magazines around the world. McLean has garnered many awards for his work, including four gold and eight silver medals from the Society of Illustrators and the prestigious Clio award for television advertising. In addition to his work for the U.N. Postal Administration, McLean has also designed stamps for Great Britain and the United States Postal Service.
A separate piece of artwork was created for each souvenir sheet of this issue. The designs illustrate the day-to-day efforts of United Nations workers and affiliated organizations to solve problems of humanity. A few of the goals of these organizations are to promote respect for human rights, protect the environment, fight disease, and reduce poverty and crime. The UN also works to set safety standards, protect consumers, and clear land mines. In September 2000, heads of state and various other government leaders met at UN headquarters in New York City to discuss the role of the UN in the 21st century.
