All Aboard....
On August 26, 1999, the USPS issued a set of five stamps celebrating five different historic passenger trains called the All Aboard series.... The 20th C. Limited, the Super Chief, the Congressional, the Hiawatha, and the Daylight. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with all five stamps cancelled from the city of issue (Cleveland, Ohio) on the first day of issue captioned above.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features each legendary train rendered in watercolors by award-winning cachet artist, Sue Allen. Unaddressed, this cover is a collectible, historic piece of railroad and postal memorabilia. A brief commentary about each train is included.
Double matted in blue & white, this piece will fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***Certificate of Authenticity plus Commentary Included***
