50th Anniversary BSA - Norman Rockwell Liberia Cover.....
On September 1, 1979, the country of Liberia issued a series of stamps commemorating the Boy Scout art of Norman Rockwell, who created so many memorable pictures for the annual Boy Scout Calendar. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Monrovia, Liberia) on the first day of issue captioned above. This particular stamp shows artwork commemorating the 50th Aniversary of the Boy Scouts of America. The full-color picture on the stamp of a Cub Scout, Boy Scout and Eagle Scout with a globe and the Boy Scout Oath is repeated on the cachet (artwork on the envelope.) The cancellation of the stamp shows the Scout insignia and another cancellation of a hand in the Scout Salute says, "In Commemoration of Norman Rockwell."
We've joined this cover with a full-color print by Norman Rockwell of a Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Eagle Scout, Scout Leader, and US Sailor, highlighting the progression of service to God and Country.
Matted in blue, it's sized to fit a standard 11 x 14 frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY INCLUDED***
