On October 24, 1996, the USPS issued a stamp to celebrate the Yellow Rose. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the stamp cancelled from the city of issue (Pasadena, CA) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features outstanding watercolor art by award-winning cachet artist, Sue Allen. We think this is the most beautiful cachet ever created! Ms Allen uses the entire envelope as her canvas and even incorporates the stamp into the picture - note how the stem from the rose on the stamp is carried down the length of the envelope! Whether you're a rose-enthusiast, happen to be from Texas, or a lover of special artwork....this cover is sure to please.
Double matted in green and white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity Included***
