back in 1991 through 1995, the U. S. Post Office issued each year a 10 commemorative stamp sheetlet that recognized the World War II events that took place during the years 1941 thru 1945 (50th anniversary of each). The U.S.S. Arizona memorial commemorative is from the 1995 sheet.I don't think I have that stamp. Or have ever seen it.
Has it really been almost 30 years since those commemoratives were issued?

Yes, the USPS does release a plethora of commemorative postage stamps each year, in addition to the usual myriad of definitive stamps. For example, in 2021, the Post Office issued some 106 different stamps, covering such subjects as: the Love stamp, August Wilson-playwright, 10 garden beauty stamps, 10 Star Wars movie droids, Japanese-American WWII soldiers, 10 sun science stamps, Yogi Berra, 4 Western wear stamps, Ursula Le Guin, 5 Mid-Atlantic lighthouses, Missouri statehood and the usual religious & secular Christmas stamps, the Chanukkah stamp, the Kwanza stamp and the Diwali stamp. Many of these came in booklets of 10 or 20 stamps or sheetlets of 20. With self-adhesive common, stamp sheets are no longer 50 stamps to a sheet^ In Canada, Canada Post is constantly releasing commemorative stamps, releasing collector sets, and changing regular circulation postage stamps. The Royal Canadian Mint does the same thing with coins. Does the same thing happen in the United States?
I think all of the US stopped collecting the quarters about halfway through. I haven’t even paid attention to the reverse side for years.^ Thanks. Someone I knew from the US started sending me the State quarters. She stopped half-way through and I never heard from her again.
The program ended when all of the states and territories were done.^ Did the mint simply stop minting them? I believe they were released 4 coins each month. I found that odd.
