On March 5, 1982, the USPS issued a stamp to commemorate Soaring and the 50th anniversary of the founding of "The Soaring Society of America." Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, in this case an imprinted postcard with the imprint or "stamp" of a modern sailplane cancelled from the city of issue (Houston, Texas) on the first day of issue (captioned above.)
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a sailplane "off tow", making soaring a combination of nature, science, and skill.
Double matted in blue and white, this piece is matted to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included plus a short blurb on soaring***
