On July 4, 1977, the USPS issued four different stamps commemorating Colonial Craftsmen. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the stamp commemorating the Seamstress cancelled from the city of issue (Cincinnati, Ohio) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features an 18th Century Colonial Seamstress sewing a uniform for the Colonial Army. Historic, collectible, this is a great gift for a seamstress or anyone who enjoys sewing as a hobby or profession. The company that produced this cover has also written a brief commentary about the important role the seamstress played in Colonial times as well as frontier America. We've included a copy for you.
Double matted in blue & white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8 X 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity plus Commentary Included***
