If you love First Day Covers, this scarce cover commemorating the 1939 World’s Fair is the perfect centerpiece for your collection. What makes it so special? It was the first First Day Cover ever produced by the world-famous cachet-maker ArtCraft! And now you can be one of the lucky collectors to own this seldom-seen philatelic first.
The ArtCraft cover is franked with the 1939 New York World’s Fair stamp – US #853. And though over 100 million of that stamp were printed, only a tiny fraction were placed on ArtCraft First Day Covers. So not only is it ArtCraft’s first, it’s also a scarce artifact that makes an exciting find for your collection. Luckily we’ve accumulated a small quantity over the years. And I want you to have one for your collection.
The World’s Fair, which the #853 stamp and its First Day Cover celebrated, was the largest-ever international exposition. Issued on April 1, 1939, the stamp and cover made a great advertisement for the upcoming New York City event. People were tired after a prolonged depression. The cover shows the fair was about the world and our hopes for a better future. The two huge modernist structures created especially for the event – the 610-foot Trylon and 180-foot Perisphere – are symbols of the fair and its theme.
Why you should own this First Day Cover…
