* Sunday Stamps *

I am showing a George Washington Stamp.  
He seems to be popular this week on Sunday Stamps.  
This is commemorating the Sesquicentennial of his Inauguration 
as First President of the United States.
 1789 - 1939
President from 1789 to 1797

Also notice the special Railway Cancellation
from the 1939 New York World's Fair.

  1. It's a really beautiful colour! It seems a shame they don't still have railway mail services.

  2. I'm sure it would be possible to build a large collection just with George Washington stamps.

  3. That bright pink colour is not what I would associate with Mr Washington!
    I'm beginning to think that some mail might travel faster if by rail ;)
