Sagamore Hill.... On September 14, 1953, the USPS issued a stamp to commemorate the dedication of Sagamore Hill, the home of Theodore Roosevelt, as a National Shrine. The actual dedication took place June 14, 1953. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Oyster Bay, N.Y.) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The black & white cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a front view of Sagamore Hill and an inset of the 26th President of the United States.
Double matted in green & white, it will fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
