On September, 13, 2003, the USPS issued a stamp to honor the fiddle-playing Country Music Legend, Roy Acuff on the almost-100th Anniversary of his birth in Maynardsville, Tn. (He was actually born on September 15th.) Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with Acuff's stamp cancelled in the city of issue (Nashville, TN) on the first day of issue captioned above. Note the fancy postmark designed for the cancellation of the stamps on First Day Covers.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) shows a promotional portrait of Acuff. It's printed on silk surrounded by gold embossing.
Double matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 X 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
