Great Women Working on Small Things

Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958)

Esther Lederberg (1922-2006)

Postcards sent by Phillip (the USA), with two more women of science recreated by illustrator Rachel Ignotofsky. The stamps belong to the series Life Magnified, issued on 13 December 2023 (I got three of them on this envelope). And some more:

Freshwater Protozoans / Blue Button Organisms / Mold Spores

Red Blood Cells / Human Hair

Oak Leaf Surface / Red Blood Cells / Starling Bone Tissue

Macaw Parrot Feather / Moss Leaves / Human Hair

Arranged Diatoms

Flame Lily Pollen

Moth Wing Scales

  1. Great to see these women and stamps again. I love how the pictorial postmark matches the details on the postcard.
