This 1972 14¢ Fiorello LaGuardia First Day Cover bears the official first-day cancel from New York, NY dated April 24, 1972. The stamp is affixed to a clean envelope with the printed "FIRST DAY OF ISSUE" inscription beneath the stamp.
Fiorello H. LaGuardia served as mayor of New York City from 1934 to 1945 and remains one of the most influential figures in the city's history. Known as the "Little Flower," he led major infrastructure projects, fought corruption, and became a national voice during the New Deal era.
The stamp design features LaGuardia's portrait against the New York City skyline, including the Empire State Building, tying the issue directly to his hometown and legacy.
A straightforward yet attractive addition for collectors of U.S. political figures, New York City history, or modern commemorative FDCs.
