On January 8, 1993, fifty-eight years from his birth in Tupelo, Mississippi, the USPS issued a stamp to honor Elvis Presley and his contribution to music. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the Elvis stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Memphis) on the first day of issue captioned above. The Post Office had a special cancellation made - the gates of Graceland. Collectible, historic, uncancelled, pristeen - if you don't have a First Day Cover of the Elvis stamp, now is the time to get one.
The cachet (artwork on the envelope) features full-color art of the young Elvis. Double matted in blue & white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included plus a short bio on Elvis' early years as a performer***
