Item Name: United States 1940s-2000s First Day Covers Stamp/Envelope Collection - Sold Individually Product Description: Today, we're delighted to introduce these beautiful "First Day Covers" from the United States, dating approximately from the 1940s to the 2000s. Fans of stamp collecting might be familiar with First Day Covers, but for others, the concept may be new. A "First Day Cover" is an envelope bearing a new stamp or set of stamps, affixed to a specially designed envelope and postmarked on the first day of the stamp's official issue. If it has been through the postal system, it's known as a "used" or "mailed" First Day Cover. As a record of the stamp's first day of release, the First Day Cover is intrinsically linked to the stamp itself. They are designed, printed, and issued by postal authorities or philatelic companies, though some collectors also create their own. Typically, First Day Covers feature illustrations and text related to the stamp, enhancing the stamp's promotional impact. With their artistic merit, historical significance, and the inherent joy of collecting, First Day Covers are increasingly cherished by philatelists worldwide. The First Day Covers featured here showcase historical figures, architecture, personalities, narratives, animals, and more. Presented with exquisite printing, some even featuring hot foil stamping, they make for a truly wonderful collection! # This item is sold individually # Please select your preferred design *Our collection primarily features European antiques, vintage items, and pre-owned objects. As these are items that have weathered the passage of time, some may exhibit minor historical marks, such as tiny dark spots or small chips. They will not be as pristine as brand-new items. However, these characteristics do not detract from their inherent vintage charm and beauty. We kindly ask those who are perfectionists or who prefer brand-new items to consider this carefully before purchasing. We hope you'll join us in appreciating the beauty of antique treasures.
