On April 7, 2006, the USPS issued a stamp honoring one of the greatest boxers of all time, Sugar Ray Robinson. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (New York, NY) on the first day of issue captioned above. Note the special postmark created to cancel this stamp on its 'birthday.'
The cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a full-color portrait of Sugar Ray printed on silk. Collectible, historic, can't-be--duplicated, this is a great piece of boxing memorabilia.
Double matted in blue & white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
