Diamond Head, Hawaii
Just over a kilometer in diameter, the tuff ring of Diamond
Head sits at the edge of Honolulu.
This site
goes a little overboard, but provides a good description.
The earliest depicting Diamond Head is the first stamp issued
in 1894.
The next (courtesy of Ed Benson) is an envelope cut-out US
U3
The stamp below (courtesy of Jon Fishback) was issued March
26th, 1952
The stamps below were issued April 4th, 2002 and October 25th,
2002.
Diamond Head can just be made out over the head of Duke Kahanamoku
in the next stamp.
The latest issue showing Diamond Head is the October 24th,
2002 Missionaries issue illustrated below
