2002 Star Stamps – Partial Sheet of 4 – 3¢ Mint – Make‑Up Rate – Scott #3754

This lot includes a partial sheet of four unused 3¢ “Star” definitive stamps issued by the United States Postal Service on June 7, 2002. Designed by Phil Jordan, the stamp features a bold red, white, and blue star graphic. It was created as a “make‑up rate” stamp, allowing customers to conveniently add postage to previously issued 34¢ stamps to meet the new 37¢ first‑class rate. Issued on pressure‑sensitive adhesive panes, these stamps remain mint and valid for current postage when combined to meet mailing rates.
