Cover Commemorates Stamp Collecting Day at 1992 Stamp Expo
The World Columbian Stamp Expo '92 was held in Chicago. This cover features an official cachet authorized by the stamp exposition. It pictures the three boats used during Christopher Columbus's voyage to the new world. The postmark highlights the theme for May 30 - Stamp Collecting.
The stamp included on the cover is US #2616, produced to promote the Expo. It features a portion of the 15¢ pictorial design of 1869. The original design for the 1869 stamp was taken from John Vanderlyn's painting "The Landing of Columbus," which hangs in the rotunda of the Capitol.
