On October 18, 1994, the USPS issued a set of 20 stamps called Legends of the West. This stamp is one of those and honors legendary frontier law officer .... Wyatt Earp. Shown here is a genuine First Day Cover, an envelope with the new stamp cancelled from the city of issue (in this case, Laramie, Wyoming) on the first day of issue captioned above. In short, it's the 'birthday' of the stamp - a collectible, historic piece of postal and Western memorabilia.
The full-color cachet (artwork on the envelope) shows a portrait of Earp. This makes a great gift, not only for someone that collects memorabilia of The West, but someone in Law Enforcement too. The producer of this cover has also written a short commentary about the colorful life of Earp...we've included a copy for you.
Double Matted in blue & white, it's sized to fit a standard 8 x 10 picture frame. ***CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY AND COMMENTARY INCLUDED ***
