On May 3, 1989, the USPS issued a stamp commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Statehood of South Dakota. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the full-color stamp, which depicts a sod hut and the State Flower - the American pasqueflower, cancelled from the city of issue (Pierre, SD) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The color cachet (artwork on the envelope produced by a private company, not the post office) features several vignettes of Rhode Island - the state map, Mt. Rushmore, and the state Bird & Flower. The company that produced this cover has also written a brief commentary about South Dakota, which we've included.
Double matted in green & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8x10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity plus Commentary Included***
