This Artmaster cacheted First Day Cover features the 1965 25¢ Paul Revere coil stamp, postmarked on the first day of issue, February 25, 1965, in Wheaton, Maryland.
Paul Revere, the famed patriot and silversmith, is best remembered for his midnight ride during the American Revolution to warn colonial militia of approaching British forces. The stamp's issuance in 1965 coincided with growing national interest in Revolutionary-era history ahead of the upcoming bicentennial.
The cachet depicts Revere's portrait alongside a dramatic scene of the rider on horseback with a colonial church steeple, highlighting his dual roles as artisan and messenger. As a coil stamp issue, it represents a specialized format popular with collectors of that period.
A fine addition to any collection of Artmaster FDCs, Revolutionary War topicals, or U.S. coil stamps, this cover displays sharp postmarking and attractive original artwork in excellent condition.
