companying each mint- perfect replica is the 
actual stamp, cancelled with the Official First 
Dav of Issue Postmark. The result is a collect - 
ible of unsurpassed meaning, beauty,

Nothing captures the grandeur and 
glory of this land like America’s stamps. 
For here is where we honor the men 
and women who made this nation great. 
Where we relive the high points in our 
history. Where we rejoice in America’s 
magnificent natural beauty. Where we pay 
tribute to our customs and folklore, 
institutions and ideals. Each new 
stamp is a patriotic treasure. And 
each is also an important original 
work of art — created by one of 
America’s finest living artists. 
Imagine the excitement, then, 
when each new stamp is immor- 
talized on a gleaming surface of 
2 2 kt gold! 
graph of the original design. From this photograph, 
the stamp is then recreated on sheets of paper- 
backed 22 kt gold precisely to the original’s size, 
shape, and official design. 
First, the skilled craftsman hand- inscribes every 
line and stroke of the original in raised relief upon a 
master model from which a die is created. The die 
is then used to strike the 2 2 kt gold surface in a flaw- 
less proof-like finish — just as if one were produc- 
ing a magnificent medal or coin. The result is not an 
ingot or a medallion — hut a dramatic, three-di- 
mensional sculpture, standing in high relief on a 
mirror-surface of gleaming gold! 
Much in the manner of a precious medal or coin, 
each proof- like gold replica is displayed against a 
rich velvety background — and preserved forever in 
a clear protective capsule to guard against dust, loss, 
or harm from fingerprints. A perfect mint speci- 
men for your children, your grandchil- 
dren, and their children to enjoy in years 
to come. 
The actual 
First Day of Issue Stamp 
attests to the faithfulness 
of the replica!
