  2001 Bush Inaugural Cover
With President's Liberia Stamp

Inaugural Covers are those that are canceled on the same day a President is sworn into office.  The most prized are those that are canceled in Washington, D.C.  Many early Inauguration Covers have a standard black bar cancel.  Covers issued more recently often have pictorial cancels or may simply say, “Inauguration Day.”

A fun part of Inaugural Covers is that they will always feature patriotic stamps.  These can include the American Flag, Statue of Liberty, the nation’s capital and more.  As an added bonus, this cover also features a George W. Bush stamp issued by Liberia.

Inaugural covers are a different part of collecting you’ll enjoy discovering.
