On September 23, 2005, the USPS and the country of Sweden jointly issued a stamp to honor one of the greatest actresses of all time...GRETA GARBO. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new U.S. stamp cancelled from the city of issue (New York, NY) on the first day of issue (captioned above.) Note the special postmark created for the cancellation of this stamp on its 'birthday.'
The cachet features a stunning black & white portrait of Garbo. It's printed on silk and surrounded by gold embossing. The sheen of the silk lends luminosity to the picture, making it appear almost three-dimensional. If you love the cinema, you'll want to own this latest addition to the Legends of Hollywood series.
Double matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
