On October 10, 1960, the USPS issued a stamp to honor the conservative senator from Ohio, Robert A. Taft, known as "Mr. Republican." Shown here is a genuine FIRST DAY COVER, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the CITY OF ISSUE (Cincinnati, Ohio) on the FIRST DAY OF ISSUE captioned above.
The black & white cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a portrait of Taft. Note the special cancellation designed for this stamp. This is a collectible, historic piece of US political and Republican Party memorabilia.
Double matted in green & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY INCLUDED***
