Item Description

Full mint sheet of 50 - 3 cent stamps issued in 1947 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first U.S. postage stamps. The stamp shows a portrait of George Washington and Ben Franklin and a variety of early and modern mail transports including horse and rider, steam locomotive, modern train, ship, and airplane. The picture below shows one of the stamps from the sheet. This sheet is as fresh as the day it was purchased at the post office 70+ years ago and is suitable for framing. If you're a stamp collector, it is Scott #947. Plate # 23599 UR.

For First Class, flat shipping with a stiff cardboard backing for mint sheets I charge a flat rate of $3.00 for items purchased with one payment and sent to US addresses. That covers as many sheets as you win, so bid on several and save on postage. For other items and International addresses, actual postage costs will be charged.
