Maybelle Stamper (1907–1995) was an American printmaker.

Stamper studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Art Students League of New York.[3] In 1947 she moved to Captiva Island, Florida, where she became a friend of her neighbor Robert Rauschenberg.[3][4][5] Around 1990, she deeded her property to Rauschenberg in exchange for being able to live there and for financial support until her death.[3][4]

Her work is included in the permanent collections of the Block Museum of Art,[6] the Cincinnati Art Museum,[1] The Museum of Modern Art,[7] the National Gallery of Art,[8] the Smithsonian American Art Museum,[2] and the Currier Museum of Art.[9]
