1985 First Day Cover - Statue of Liberty Centennial / Ellis Island with Official Centennial Seal
A handsome 1985 first day cover honoring the Statue of Liberty Centennial (1886-1986), inscribed "Liberty Enlightening The World." The cover is franked with the 22c stamp picturing F.A. Bartholdi, the sculptor who gave America her most famous landmark, and postmarked New York, NY, JUL 18 1985, First Day of Issue.
What sets this cachet apart is the Official Centennial Seal medallion affixed to the panel, paired with descriptive text about Lady Liberty and Ellis Island. It's a nicely presented piece of philatelic Americana that displays beautifully in an album or a small frame.
Unaddressed and in excellent, like-new condition. A great inexpensive gift for a stamp collector, history buff, or anyone with New York roots.
