Justification of Maximum Concordance: This maximum card demonstrates excellent thematic, geographic, and temporal concordance. The stamp, issued for the 50th anniversary of Hawaii's statehood, features artwork by Herb Kawainui Kane showing a surfer and canoe.

The postmark from Honolulu, HI, applied on the official first day of issue (August 21, 2009), ensures perfect geographic and temporal alignment.
