On March 13, 1997, the USPS issued the first two triangular stamps commemorating the stagecoach and, featured here, the Clipper Ship. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the Clipper Ship Triangle Stamp cancelled from the city of issue (New York, N.Y.) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a drawing of an American Clipper Ship under full sail. Great art, unaddressed, this cover is a collectible, historic piece of sailing and postal memorabilia.
Double matted in blue & white, this piece will fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included plus a short blurb on the Clipper Ships***
