This Art Craft Official First Day Cover features the 4¢ Abraham Lincoln stamp from the Prominent Americans Series, postmarked in New York, NY on November 19, 1965. The cachet shows a striking portrait of Lincoln alongside a scene depicting his delivery of the Gettysburg Address.
Lincoln served as the 16th President during the Civil War, preserving the Union and issuing the Emancipation Proclamation. His Gettysburg Address, quoted on the cover, remains one of the most revered speeches in American history.
Issued during the ASDA National Postage Stamp Show, this cover highlights the 1965 stamp program honoring prominent Americans. The dual-stamp franking and bold “First Day of Issue” cancel make it visually appealing for display.
A fine example for collectors of presidential or Civil War topicals, this FDC offers strong philatelic and historical appeal in very good condition.
