This ArtCraft Official First Day Cover features the 13¢ Adolph S. Ochs stamp issued September 18, 1976, in New York, NY. The cachet portrays Ochs alongside a reproduction of a 1927 New York Times front page announcing Charles Lindbergh’s transatlantic flight.
Adolph S. Ochs transformed The New York Times into one of the world’s most respected newspapers during his tenure as publisher from 1896 until his death in 1935. His emphasis on objective reporting and the famous slogan “All the News That’s Fit to Print” established standards still followed in modern journalism.
A notable detail is the cachet’s inclusion of the actual Lindbergh headline, linking Ochs’s legacy directly to one of the defining news events of the 20th century. The ArtCraft design and crisp first-day cancel make this an attractive piece for collectors of journalism, publishing, or New York history.
A fine addition to any topical collection of American publishers, media history, or ArtCraft cachets, this cover displays excellent condition with sharp postmark and vibrant graphics.
