This special issue of postage stamps was produced by overprinting the 2 cent and 5 cent stamps of the 1922-23 series with "Hawaii" across the top of the stamps and "1778-1928" across the bottom of the stamps.
Interesting fact--they were released in Hawaiian Post Offices in connection with a gala celebration honoring the 150th anniversary of the discovery of the Hawaiian Islands.
