Geronimo.... On October 18, 1994, the USPS issued a set of 20 stamps called Legends of the West. This stamp is one of those and honors one of the most feared and respected Indian warriors, Geronimo. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Laramie, Wyoming) on the first day of issue captioned above. In short, it's the 'birthday' of the stamp - a collectible, historic piece of postal and Western memorabilia.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) shows a color-tinted photo of this Chiricahua Apache War Leader.
The company that produced this cover has also written a brief
commentary of Geronimo, which we have included. Read more in this
included addition to the cover.
Double matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY PLUS COMMENTARY INCLUDED***
