.Historical Context:
The 1938 Presidential Series, affectionately called the “Prexies,” is a definitive U.S. issue that replaced the 1920s-30s Washington-Franklin designs. Designed to educate and honor presidential legacy, it includes 31 denominations, with stamps arranged chronologically by each president's time in office.

This issue is not only a philatelic classic, but a favorite among educators, historians, and collectors alike — especially in plate block format, which is much scarcer in clean condition.

Most blocks are MNH, crisp and fresh

Some are MLH, with light hinge marks on back

No tears, thins, or missing perforations observed

All plate numbers are complete and positioned correctly

Please review all high-resolution scans carefully — what you see is exactly what you get.
