2014 49 cents Star Spangled Banner
Double-sided Pane of 20
This stamp commemorates 200th anniversary of Star-Spangled Banner.The stamp’s image is from a photo of flag that flies over Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine.It was taken during fireworks display at annual Defenders Day celebration.
During the War of 1812, Mary Pickersgill was commissioned to sew a flag so large that the British will have no difficulty seeing it from a distance.The flag was to fly over Baltimore’s Fort McHenry, which the British hoped to capture.
Pickersgill was asked to make one American ensign, 30x42 feet, first quality bunting.A smaller flag of lighter materials was also ordered for use during bad weather.Over 400 yards of wool bunting was needed to construct the larger flag, which weighed about 50 pounds.Because of its size, the work was done on the floor of a nearby brewery after the business had closed for the day.
The British began bombarding Fort McHenry on September 13, 1814. Francis Scott Key witnessed the 25-hour assault from a ship in Chesapeake Bay.Because it was raining heavily, Key likely saw the smaller flag at twilight’s last gleaming.But as morning neared, the oversized flag was defiantly hoisted above Fort McHenry.The sight inspired Key to write lyrics about the star-spangled banner.
If not for fate, the Battle of Fort McHenry would have had a more explosive ending.Only the fort’s commander knew that its gunpowder magazine, over which some 2,000 shells fell, was not bombproof.A direct hit would have destroyed the fort instantly.
Gary Clark was the photographer for the stamps image.He said it was difficult to get the fireworks and the flag at the same time because it was windy the night he took the photo at the Defenders Day celebration.

Great sturdy chair and beautiful color
Color: White
I love this chair. I bought it for my home office. It is beautiful, sturdy and very comfortable. I'm not good at all with assembling even basic things but I would say that this was relatively pretty simple for someone like me to put together. Good price and good product.

Reliable, Comfortable, and Good-Looking Chair — I Keep Coming Back to It
Color: White
This is my fourth time purchasing this Amazon Basics mid-back office chair, which says a lot about its overall value. It looks clean and modern, fits well in a home office, and is genuinely comfortable for daily use. I typically get about a year and a half out of each one, which feels reasonable given the price point and materials.
Out of the box, the chair is easy to assemble and immediately comfortable. The padding is supportive, the armrests are well positioned, and the faux leather gives it a more upscale appearance than many chairs in this category. It rolls smoothly, swivels easily, and works well for long computer sessions without causing back or shoulder fatigue.
That said, this is not a lifetime chair. After extended use, the cushioning and structure do begin to wear, and that’s usually when I replace it. Still, considering the comfort, appearance, and cost, it remains one of the best value office chairs I’ve found — which is why I keep buying it again.
Pros:
• Comfortable padding and good mid-back support
• Clean, modern appearance that looks great in an office
• Smooth rolling and stable base
• Easy assembly
• Excellent value for the price
Cons:
• Durability is moderate; expect replacement after about 1½ years
• Not designed for long-term heavy-duty use
Verdict:
If you want a comfortable, attractive, and affordable office chair that performs well for daily use, this is a strong choice. It may not last forever, but its comfort and value make it easy to recommend — and easy to repurchase.

Good Basic Chair with a Few Drawbacks
Color: Black
I bought this Amazon Basics office task chair for my boyfriend who works from home. Overall, it’s a decent, simple chair that gets the job done for everyday use, especially if you just need something functional and affordable.
However, there are a couple of downsides. The recline doesn’t go back as much as he would like, so it’s not ideal if you prefer to lean back and relax between tasks. Also, after about a month of use, the wheels don’t glide as smoothly as they did at first, which can be a bit frustrating when rolling across the floor.
Overall, it’s a solid basic chair for light use, but if you want something with a deeper recline or super smooth mobility long-term, you might want to consider other options. Still a reasonable purchase depending on your needs.
