This Art Craft First Day Cover features the 1966 5¢ General Federation of Women's Clubs commemorative stamp, postmarked in New York, NY on September 12, 1966—the official first day of issue.
The General Federation of Women's Clubs was founded in 1890 by journalist Jennie June Croly to promote education, philanthropy, public welfare, and civic engagement among women. The 1966 issue marked the organization's Diamond Jubilee (75th anniversary), highlighting its enduring role in American social reform and community service.
The cachet illustrates Croly's portrait, the GFWC headquarters building in Washington, D.C., and the jubilee theme, with the stamp design depicting a 19th-century clubwoman alongside a modern counterpart under the motto "75 Years of Service for Freedom and Growth."
A fine addition for collectors of women's history, civic organizations, or Art Craft cachets, this cover remains in excellent condition with a crisp postmark and attractive dual imagery.
