COLUMBUS LANDING IN PUERTO RICO -29 cent COMMEMORATIVE STAMP - 1993 USPS MNH - $1 - (Newton Center, MA)

Columbus Landing in Puerto Rico In reality Columbus in his first trip mostly visited Caribbean islands rather than land destined to become the United States soil, the coast of Puerto Rico. But on his second trip to the New World in 1493 navigator did touch briefly the coast of Puerto Rico.The commemorative stamp shows two ships anchored off-shore. I's a peaceful looking picture, but it symbolized a momentous changethat would soon transform world history.
