Summary edit
| Description |
English: The Bill of Rights (1791) 175th anniversary was celebrated on July 1, 1966 with a 5-cent stamp. The shield-shaped design shows two hands in conflict. The right gauntleted fist suggest the “knock on the door at night” of tyranny. The left held up in opposition symbolizes the guarantees of individual freedoms in the Bill of Rights. |
