2014 49 cents Star Spangled Banner
Double-sided Pane of 20
This stamp commemorates 200th anniversary of Star-Spangled Banner.The stamp’s image is from a photo of flag that flies over Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine.It was taken during fireworks display at annual Defenders Day celebration.
During the War of 1812, Mary Pickersgill was commissioned to sew a flag so large that the British will have no difficulty seeing it from a distance.The flag was to fly over Baltimore’s Fort McHenry, which the British hoped to capture.
Pickersgill was asked to make one American ensign, 30x42 feet, first quality bunting.A smaller flag of lighter materials was also ordered for use during bad weather.Over 400 yards of wool bunting was needed to construct the larger flag, which weighed about 50 pounds.Because of its size, the work was done on the floor of a nearby brewery after the business had closed for the day.
The British began bombarding Fort McHenry on September 13, 1814. Francis Scott Key witnessed the 25-hour assault from a ship in Chesapeake Bay.Because it was raining heavily, Key likely saw the smaller flag at twilight’s last gleaming.But as morning neared, the oversized flag was defiantly hoisted above Fort McHenry.The sight inspired Key to write lyrics about the star-spangled banner.
If not for fate, the Battle of Fort McHenry would have had a more explosive ending.Only the fort’s commander knew that its gunpowder magazine, over which some 2,000 shells fell, was not bombproof.A direct hit would have destroyed the fort instantly.
Gary Clark was the photographer for the stamps image.He said it was difficult to get the fireworks and the flag at the same time because it was windy the night he took the photo at the Defenders Day celebration.

Attractive and Functional
Color: Walnut
I bought this to prop up my MacBook Pro M2 to save space on my desk while I am using a dock. The base is nicely adjustable, and holds the laptop securely. Sturdy metal base and attractive wood side pieces. My MacBook has never felt like it might tip, and I have a cat who squeezes past it to reach my office window multiple times per day. If you like the look, I'd highly recommend it for functionality.

Amazing desk tray at an affordable price!
Style: desk drawer with pen holder
I purchased this to do with my work desk at home, and it looks great! Perfectly fits under my desk shelf and the rubber feet are a nice touch to help it stay in place when grabbing items and putting mg them back! I don’t have much use for the pen holder but it looks great as well. Much cheaper than some of the more expensive versions that the YouTube’s get paid to promote!
