BUSTS AND SCHULPTURES
Thomas Paine was voted into the Hall of
Fame by the Trustees of New York University in 1945, and
this bronze bust was commissioned to be placed in the Colonnade
of the Immortals. A
dedication ceremony was held in 1952. Sculpted by Malvina
Hoffman, the bronze tablet below the bust bears the opening
lines of The American Crisis IV. Today, the
property is part of New York City's community college system.

This miniature of Thomas Paine was a present for Thomas
Jefferson from John Trumbull who painted it in 1788 while Paine
and Trumbull were both in London. When Jefferson received the
miniature, he wrote Trumbull, "I am to thank you a thousand
times for the portrait of Mr. Paine, which is a perfect
likeness..." The miniature is now held at Monticello.

POSTAGE STAMP
The "Paine U.S. Postage Stamp" was issued in 1968 as
a 40 cent commemorative stamp, largely through the dedicated
efforts of Joseph Lewis of New Jersey, who repeatedly
contributed funds and labor to pay homage to Paine. The image is
from the portrait by John Wesley Jarvis, which is in the
National Portrait Gallery, Washington DC.
