This 1969 Artmaster first day cover features the 6¢ Flag over the White House coil stamp, postmarked in Chicago, Illinois on May 30, 1969—the official first day of issue.
The stamp was released during a period of heightened national symbolism, honoring the American flag flying above the White House as a representation of unity and patriotism in the late 1960s.
A notable detail is its production as a coil stamp, designed for use in vending machines and automated post office equipment, with the Artmaster cachet depicting the White House and waving flag in classic black-and-white line art.
The cover is addressed to Rochester, New York, a city with deep roots in American manufacturing and postal history.
A clean, well-preserved example ideal for collectors of flag topical issues, coil stamps, or Artmaster cachets.
