U.S. #3505a-d
2001 Pan-American Inverts
First Day Cover
 
Issue Date: March 29, 2001
City: New York, New York
 
This First Day Cover features the 1¢, 2¢ 4¢, and 80¢ stamps from the Pan-American Inverts Sheet. The three smaller denomination stamps were mistakenly inverted during its original printing in 1901. The Postal Service decided to purposely make the reproductions inverted on the souvenir sheet. The original dies were used to create the stamps.
 
The design on the diamond-shaped 80¢ stamp is based on a label used to promote the Exposition.
 
The 1901 Pan-American Exposition celebrated the impressive progress America had made in engineering and industry. Six stamps were issued in conjunction with the fair. They were the first stamps of the twentieth century and the first bi-colored general release since the 1869 Pictorials. A printing error caused a number of prized inverted stamps.
