On July 26, 1970, the USPS issued a stamp to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Adams,MA - birthplace of Susan B. Anthony) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The color cachet (artwork on the envelope) highlights Esther Hobart Morris, the First Woman Justice in the US and advocate of the Legislative Act in 1869 which gave to the Territory of Wyoming the distinction of being the first government in the world to grant women equal rights. This is one of several collectible, historic pieces of Woman's Rights and American History Memorabilia offered by Wall Art Collectbles.
Double matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
