During 1989-1995 The Republic of the Marshall Islands, through its postal services agent the Unicover Corporation of Wyoming, issued a series of postage stamps to commemorate the fifty-year anniversaries of the One Hundred Epic Events of World War II. The one hundred events were illustrated through 157 commissioned images. The author considers this to be the best set of stamps ever issued. The series illustrate world-history significant story told through visually compelling stamp images from beginning to end, complemented the historically exciting narratives (as seen at the 50th anniversary) of the event. I have added a commentary to each image to reflect the 2025 (80 year) perspective. Consistently high-quality images with the acknowledgment to the individual artists who created them. The integrity of the complete issue, over a 7-year period and being able to judge the significance of the events as seen by the Military Historical Panel who undertook the task of determining what were the epic events of WW2 at the 50-year anniversaries of those events and now after 80 years. The author particularly enjoys what I have called the selvedge commentary of participants in the event - an insight to how / what they felt at the time. It makes the event more alive. Gaining an insight into the initiative, disciplined creativity and expertise of James A Helzer of the Unicover Corporation of Wyoming in creating the infrastructure to sustain his masterpiece. The opportunity for me to update how history views the events 80 years after the event from up-to-date analysis. There are three stamps issued with an anomaly, which were reprinted to correct a wrong spelling emphasising the quality controls exercised over the seven years of issue.
