Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover commemorating the Eastern Bluebird. It's an envelope with the new stamp cancelled on the first day (April 3, 1996) from the city of issue (Washington DC.) The reason the cardinal stamp is on is that the bluebird stamp does not meet current postage.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features this beautiful backyard bird. The picture is printed on silk, the luminosity lending an almost three-dimensional quality. This is a collectible, historic piece of postal and bird wildlife memorabilia.
Double matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
