1993 Commemorative Ornament

80th Anniversary of the 16th Amendment

THA's fifth annual ornament depicts the first Form 1040 as a commemorative of the 80th Anniversary of the authorization to collect tax on income. The ornament measures approximately 3-1/4 by 3-1/2 inches.

The 16th Amendment to the Constitution - the briefest, with the exception of the Bill of Rights - states "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever sources derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration." On January 5, 1914, the Department of the Treasury unveiled the new Form 1040 for tax year 1913. This item is not available at this time.
