The Inauguration of Barack Obama ....

On January 20, 2009, Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th President of the United States. Shown here is an official Inaugural Cover, (envelope) 'freezing' the time (the aforementioned date) and place (Washington DC) of this historic 'change of power.'  The 42 cents flag stamps on each envelope (there are four covers in this series) serve the purpose of supplying current postage, for without it the post office would not cancel. The large cancellation mark incorporates the Great Seal of the United States, the words 'Presidential Inauguration, the date and the city... 2009 Station - Washington DC.

The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features the President Obama taking the oath of office with Michelle at his side, the caption under the picture reading,  "At noon today, Barack Hussein Obama became the 44th president of the United States and the nation's first black commander-in-chief.  With his hand on the Lincoln Bible, Obama took the oath of office administered by Chief Justice John Roberts."

The cachet is printed on silk, the luster lending an-almost three dimensional effect, surrounded by a gold embossed border... adding to the value of these cover.  The fact that this company used photographs of the actual events and not drawings further contributes to their collectibility.  

Postal Stamp Art is proud to offer this collectible, historic piece of presidential memorabilia.

Matted in blue, it will fit a standard 11x14 picture frame. Because of the collectibility and historic nature of these covers, they will first be placed in an acid-free, crystal-clear sleeve, which, in turn, will then be affixed to the mat, thereby preserving their mint condition.  A piece of acid-free mat inside each envelope  will keep the glue lines from bleeding through over time.  If, at a future date, you prefer not to have this item displayed on your wall, just slit open the plastic sleeve, remove the cover and place it in an album. ***This is one of four covers in this series matted individually; we have all four.  You can also get this cover combined with the Joe Biden cover matted in the same 11x14 format.  See our other listing in this category***
