On May 31, 1993, the USPS issued a set of ten stamps commemorating the 50th Anniversary of ten different events of 1943 during WWII. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the stamp honoring the U.S. Medical Services (Medics) cancelled from the city of issue (Washington, DC) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features a medic giving medical treatment to a wounded soldier while his buddy looks on. The courageous efforts of the men and women of the U.S. Medical Sevices on the front lines saved countless lives while risking their own safety. The company that produced this cover has also written a brief commentary about the U.S. Medical Services, which we've included. Collectible, historic, this is a great piece of military and medical memorabilia.
Double matted in blue and white, this piece is sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity plus Commentary Included***
