The Postal Service issued its 29-cent World War II commemorative stamps September 3, 1991, in conjunction with the American Legion's national convention in Phoenix, Arizona. Each commemorative sheet features ten individual stamps in two rows of five, one above and one below a Mercator-projection world map entitled, "1941: A World at War."
Designed by William H. Bond, the stamps were printed through the intaglio/offset process by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
