Item Description
United States, Scott #1753, used(o), 1976, American Bicentenniel Issue, celebrting the 200th Anniversary of the French Alliance, signed in Paris on February 6th, 1778 and ratified by Congress on May 4th, 1778; it was a military alliance, negotiated by the American diplomats Benjamin Franklin, Silas Deane, and Arthur Lee; the Treaty of Alliance required that neither France nor the United States agree to a separate peace with Great Britain, and that American independence was a condition of any future peace agreement; stamp shows King Louis XVI of France with our Ambassador Benjamin Franklin from a porcelain sculpture by Charles Gabriel Sauvage, known as Lemire (1741–1827), Scott 2019 catalog value: 25¢. Nicely centered, very light, non-descript, black-inked, scattered cancellation marks covering a very small area, left and up from center, the lightness of the cancel and its relative small area leaves the main image largely clear, sound back, hinge gum remnant, good perforations; centering and image free cancel warrants a selling price premium. This is not a 'bait-and-switch;' the stamp you see will be the one you receive.Please review my terms of sale. If you are not ordering from the United States, there is a $US1.50 additional postage expense that needs to be added to the price of the stamp. If you are ordering from the United States, there is only a $US0.66 added postage expense. Also, if you make additional purchases from my offerings, they can all go in one mailing at no extra shipping expense for the added purchases. I will send the purchase by US first class mail, since the relatively low value of the stamp does not warrant signature or tracking mail. Hence the buyer assumes risk of loss or non-delivery. I will keep a scan of my mailing to verify that the correct mailing address was used.
By way of reference, I am an American Philatelic Society member (195176) and an American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA) member. Thank you for looking, and I hope this is the perfect stamp to fill that gap in your collection.
