15 Years of Junior Duck Stamps The Junior Duck Stamp (JDS) is a pictorial stamp produced by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to recognize the conservation efforts of young people and support environmental and conservation education programs in the United States. The stamp design is selected from a national art contest administered by the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program. The first place national winner of the art contest graces that year’s JDS and is sold by the U.S. Postal Service and Amplex Corporation for $5. The first stamp, issued in 1993-1994, and was painted by Jason Parsons of Illinois. All proceeds of the stamp are used to fund environmental education programs, award the students for their work, and market the JDS program. View Junior Duck Stamps Click on the stamp images below.
