BROTHERS GRIMM Fairy Tales Germany 1st Day Postal Cover....

On January 10, 1985, the German Bundespost issued a stamp to commemorate the 200th Anniversary of the birth of Jacob Grimm and to honor both Jacob and Wilhelm - The Brothers Grimm.  Shown here is a genuine First Day Postal Cover, an envelope with the stamp, depicting both brothers, cancelled from the city of issue (Bonn) on the first day of issue captioned above. Note the clever postmark, with a facsimilie of each brother's signature, created to cancel this stamp on its 'birthday.'

The cachet (artwork on the envelope) features drawings each bother in profile. Wall Art Collectibles is proud to offer this little seen first day cover honoring The Brothers Grimm - authors of so many much-loved Fairy Tales.

Double matted in blue and white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8x10 frame.  ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
