On August 17,1990, the USPS issued a set of five stamps to commemorate Indian Headdresses, one of which is the Cheyenne. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Cody, 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 Indian memorabilia.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) shows a procession of Cheyenne warriors galloping across the plain wearing their elaborate headdresses that symbolized immense power and great medicine. This is a beautiful set of stamps and the cachet on this cover spectacular. Combined with other Southwest art on your wall, this piece of postal stamp art will be a source of pride and conversation.
Double matted in green and white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY INCLUDED as well as a COMMENTARY on the CHEYENNE HEADDRESS***
