On September 25,1980, the USPS issued a set of four stamps commemorating Northwest Indian Masks and the Native Peoples of the American Northwest. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with all four of the new stamps cancelled from the city of issue (Spokane, Wa.) on the first day of issue captioned above. In short, it's the 'birthday' of the stamp - a collectible, historic piece of postal and Indian memorabilia.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) features masks of four different tribes as do the stamps. Anytime there is a set of stamps issued and the complete set is cancelled on the First Day Cover, that is the most valuable cover...here we have the complete set of four cancelled on the first day of issue.
Double matted in blue and white. it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY INCLUDED***
