This stamp features an illustration by Rick Jacobson. It shows Chloe Cooley in the foreground and, in the background, her being forcibly taken across the Niagara River from Queenston, Upper Canada, to be sold in New York state. The images were created through extensive consultation with experts in local/regional history, Black history and period fashion, as well as through the use of historic maps, paintings, illustrations and other archival documents.
