On August 9, 2001, the USPS issued a set of four brightly-colored Amish Quilt stamps. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with one of the four stamps cancelled from the city of issue (Nappanee, Indiana) on the first day of issue captioned above. Note the special cancellation mark of a round barn and quilt designs created for all first day covers for this stamp.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) shows an Amish girl and an Amish quilt on the bed. The artwork is rendered in watercolors. Historic and collectible, this is a visually stunning piece of quilting memorabilia.
Double matted in blue & white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8 X 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
