On September 20, 1985, the United Nations issued a stamp in their Flag Series to honor the country of India. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp depicting the Indian Flag cancelled from the city of issue (United Nations, NY) on the first day of issue captioned above. Note the special postmark created to cancel this stamp on its 'birthday.'
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) celebrates the many facets of India....from the Taj Mahal to ancient costumes and rituals, to the Bengal Tiger and the legacy of Gandhi. The producer of this cover has written a brief commentary about India, which we've included.
Double matted in green & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity plus Commentary Included***
