FIRST DAY OF ISSUE COVERS (SIGNED) |
Updated: May 15, 2006
Being a stamp collector for over 30 years, makes these very special to me! The first day when a postal stamp is released by the government and postmark honoring the event is called, "First Day of Issue" or First Day Covers as we collectors call them. There is usually nice artwork on the envelopes adding to the value and collectors hobby interest. The following covers are signed and honoring the original Lost in Space TV series.
Value: $25. Each
Here's a unique Lost In Space collectible - From the
Republique Togolaise, a first day issue (or as they more
appropriately call it "Launch Date") October 16, 1997 of the
Lost In Space cast stamps. I've seen the regular stamp set on
eBay auctions before, but I have never seen a first day issue set!
Now, if that wasn't cool enough in and of itself, this
collectible is also boldly signed by Angela Cartwright (Penny)
and Bill Mumy (Will)!! Angela personally donated this item to
help raise funds for the Official Angela Cartwright Fan Club
and got her friend Bill Mumy to sign it, too!
Value: $60.
