About this stamp:
Originally issued in a sheet of 15 stamps celebrating the 1950s. Polio epidemics peaked in the '50s, with almost 58,000 new cases in 1952 alone. A vaccine developed by Dr. Jonas Salk, and federally approved in April 1955, helped control the spread of the disease when it was administered nationwide.
