On June 27, 2001, the USPS issued a set of ten stamps to commemorate Ten Classic Ballparks. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover for Fenway Park, home to the Boston Red Sox since 1912. The stamp for Fenway Park is cancelled from the city of issue (in this case Detroit, MI) on the first day of issue captioned above. Instead of the usual one city of issue selected for the vast majority of stamps, this set of ten stamps had FOUR....Chicago, Detroit, New York, and Boston.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features Fenway Park printed on silk, the luster lending an almost three-dimensional quality to the picture.
Double matted in red and white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
