KILLER WHALE 1st Day Postal Cover KILLER WHALE Stamp.... On October 3, 1990, the USPS and the Soviet Union issued a set of four stamps called Creatures of the Sea. The four animals celebrated are the Common Dolphin, the Killer Whale, the Sea Otter, and the Northern Sea Lion. Shown here is a genuine First Day Issue Postal Cover for the Killer Whale
with the stamp cancelled from the U.S. city of issue (Baltimore, MD) on
the first day of issue captioned above. Note the special postmark
designed to cancel this set of stamps in the U.S. on their
'birthday'....Moscow was selected as the city of issue in the Soviet
Union.
The full-color cachet
(artwork on the envelope) features this spirited sea mammal. The
company that produced this cover has also written a brief commentary
about the common dolphin, which we've included.
Double Matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity plus Commentary Included***
