About This Item
Prolific painter, illustrator, graphic designer and WPA muralist responsible for the 1959 "Arctic Exploration" and 1967 "Erie Canal" U.S. postage stamps. Signed First Day Cover, 6½" X 3½", cancelled in Bloomington, Illinois on 23 October 1965 and with "First Day of Issue" boldly stamped. Single Samerjan-designed 5-cent "Stevenson" stamp at upper right. Fine. No decorative cachet at left; no distracting recipient's name/address. Just below the postal cancellation, Samerjan signs large and bold in black fineline (and below his signature he's rubberstamped "George Samerjan Designer of Stamp"). Signed also at left in black ballpoint by the noted son of the stamp's subject: ADLAI E. STEVENSON III (b. 1930).
