Mr. Gross recognizes that the services and celebrate our history, heritage history of stamps is the history of America. and heroes through stamps. The USPS The stage is set. The time to invest is now. helped us forge a national identity and laid Please join us in our efforts to offer blockbuster the groundwork for today s trillion-dollar exhibitions, cutting-edge visitor experiences global mailing industry. and engaging educational programming. The Smithsonian Campaign will allow us Thank you. to share our stories with an ever-widening audience visitors to Washington, D.C., stamp lovers around the world and the millions of people fascinated by the developments of communication and stamp collecting. Our goal $22 million Like a stamp, this museum is distinctive and far-reaching. Dedicated to the preservation, study and presentation of postal history and philately, it has a magnificent collection of more than 6 million objects. The collection includes U.S. and international stamps, archival postal documents and three-dimensional objects, which trace the evolution of the U.S. Postal Service and its role in the nation s formation. 1

3 Case for Support Investments That Deliver The story of stamps in America is the story of America. I am proud to be a part of preserving and showcasing these treasures. William H. Gross Investments in exhibition development allow the National Postal Museum to create installations, which tell the amazing story of stamps. Photo Juan Carlos Briceño Right, 3-cent Smithsonian Centenary Stamp designed by William K. Schrage, issued August 10, An Endowment for Exhibitions In 2013, the museum opened the William H. Gross Stamp Gallery, the world s largest and most technologically sophisticated space for showcasing stamps. One of our funding priorities is to endow this gallery so that we can continue to offer the latest technology and blockbuster exhibitions. The museum also seeks funds for the Gems of American Philately Gallery, which houses 13 of the most historically significant stamps in the world, and the Postmaster s Suite, which displays new exhibitions of our collection and others from across the globe. Access and Education Each year, 3 million visitors explore the museum s collection online, through the website Arago: People, Postage and the Post. This is the Smithsonian s most visited collection website. Viewers trace the history of stamps, modes of communication such as telegrams and how mail is delivered, from trucks, planes or on foot. Campaign gifts will enable the museum to digitize more of our collection, expand our website and offer more visitor interaction with social media and new technology. Curator and Exhibitions The mail industry created the first air routes and developed computer-recognized handwriting software. It has been an economic engine and source for American innovation. A curator with the expertise in the history of the mail industry and its impact on American commerce will enhance the museum s scholarship and exhibitions. 2 3

4 Our Campaign Priorities This is the moment to enhance our philatelic and postal history exhibitions, reach new audiences and solidify our leadership in education and technology. Hope Diamond wrapper, William H. Gross Stamp Gallery Jeweler Harry Winston mailed the world-famous Hope Diamond to the Smithsonian, registered first class. It traveled by Railway Mail Service from New York to Union Station. The cost was $145.29, of which $2.44 covered postage. The rest paid for postal insurance of $1 million. Exhibition Endowment We seek $2 million to begin the campaign for an endowment for the William H. Gross Stamp Gallery. An endowment will ensure that the museum can maintain the level of excellence that the gallery opened with in We seek $1 million in support of the Postmaster s Suite and $750,000 in support of the Gems of American Philately Gallery. Access and Education We seek $3 million for educational programs and technology. A gift of $1 million will fund educational programming at the museum, allowing us to broaden our reach and impact. A gift of $2 million will fund technological upgrades to the museum. Curator and Exhibitions We seek $2 million to fund the development of an exhibition to tell the story of the mail industry. A portion of the fund, up to $1 million, will endow a curatorship. For more information, call or visit smithsoniancampaign.org. The Smithsonian Campaign will transform a national treasure into a catalyst for change.
