MEMBER AMERICAN PHILATELIC SOCIETY AND AMERICAN FIRST DAY COVER SOCIETY
I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING IF YOU THINK YOU WILL WIN (OR ARE WINNING) OTHER ITEMS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS, JUST LET ME KNOW AHEAD OF TIME!
This is U.S. FDC #s 4527+4528 - THE MERCURY PROJECT/MESSENGER MISSION PAIR OF STAMPS. This is an absolutely beautiful pair of stamps. One shows astronaut Alan Shepard, the first American in space, while the other shows the Messenger spacecraft in orbit around Mercury. This pair of stamps commemorate the 50th anniversary of these milestones in American Space History. And this is on a great AMERICAN FIRST DAY COVER SOCIETY-GRAEBNER CACET, in excellent condition. Look at the scan! It shows similar pictures done in brilliant colors. The text at the bottom "Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Alan B Shepard, Jr., USN as the first American in space and the MESSENGER'S scientific exploration of Mercury in 2011."
The postmark/cancellation is a LARGE COLOR GRAPHIC SHOWING THE SPACECRAFT AND A PLANET, WITH TEXT IN LARGE LETTERS MERCURY PROJECT AND MESSENGER MISSION. MAY 4, 2011, KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FL. This barely touches either stamp so this is a great looking FDC! And you can get it here at my usual low starting offer!
-You can return anything for any reason and I'll pay the costs.
- Some of my listings include free shipping (orders that total over $20.00).
- CONTACT ME if you think you will be offerding on/possibly winning, other offers over the next few days. I will hold these items until you tell me that you want a shipment, and you will then save a lot on postage.
-I don’t try to make money of the shipping and “handling” that other dealers do. I charge the actual postage, plus 10-20 cents for the envelope and cardboard packaging if necessary, with a minimum of 85 cents.
-If you are offerding from a country other than the United States, please let me know before you offer. Postage will be higher for foreign shipments and I don’t want you caught by surprise.
