Peace of 1783With the victory at the Battle of Yorktown (October 19, 1781), the Americans had essentially won the Revolutionary War. However, it took two years of negotiations, as well as some occasional fighting, to officially secure peace. On September 3, 1783, the Americans and British signed a treaty. This postage stamp was issued 150 years after the war ended. It pictures General George Washington’s headquarters at the Hasbrouck House in Newburgh, New York. Washington issued the proclamation of peace from these very headquarters.
