  • Oppose Too generic compared to other more or less notable postage stamps. Brandmeistertalk 07:39, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    It could be another one with others. Why not? Alborzagros (talk) 09:10, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I agree with Brandmeister. There are better stamps that could be featured, the 1898 $1 Trans-Mississippi Issue ("Western Cattle in Storm") for example. I would happily support stamps like those. Ayesha23 (talk) 10:34, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose – Has some (rather slight) historical EV, but simplicity of design, while appropriate to use, provides little visual interest, IMO. Sca (talk) 14:04, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
