On March 21, 1986, the USPS issued a set of five stamps commemorating five different fish. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover for the Muskellunge or 'Muskie'. A First Day Cover is an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Seattle) on the first day of issue captioned above. In short, it's the 'birthday' of the stamp - a collectible, historic piece of postal, as well as fishing memorabilia.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) is printed on silk, surrounded by gold embossing and features a leaping muskie. If you've ever battled with this worthy opponent, you'll love this reminder of fond fishing memories.
Double matted in green and white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY INCLUDED***
