Is a 1957 flag stamp a Forever stamp?

No. USPS introduced the first U.S. Forever stamp on April 12, 2007, so a stamp issued in 1957 cannot be an original Forever issue. The catalog year alone does not authenticate the item shown. Ask for the exact issue or catalog number and clear front-and-back photographs to confirm its identity and intended use.

How can I compare the 1957 flag design?

The Smithsonian National Postal Museum’s collection record identifies a 4-cent stamp depicting the 48-star U.S. flag, issued July 4, 1957 and listed as Scott 1094. Compare the flag design and printed denomination in the seller’s photo with the museum record. Ask the seller to confirm the catalog number for the exact piece offered. The stamp catalog number guide shows how to record the Scott number and the museum’s object number separately.
