On June 13, 1987, the USPS issued 50 stamps to celebrate American Wildlife. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover for the Roseate Spoonbill with the stamp cancelled from the city of issue (the USPS Station at the Canadian Stamp Show in Toronto) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a spoonbill checking out the swampy water. The company that produced this set of stamps paired each animal with a State. In this case it's Louisiana. The artist of the cachet added an extra animal in addition to the featured one. Can you find it?
Double Matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included plus a short commentary on the Roseate Spoonbill***
