2022 Raffle
Free ticket with Paid Admission - Additional Tickets for $2 Each or Three for $5
We are delighted to offer a very desirable stamp as a raffle prize at our 2022 Expo.
Our raffle winner will go home with a United States Scott Catalog number 1. The first stamp issued by the United States, the five cent Franklin was used to frank domestic letters being sent 300 miles or less.
Our specimen is a handsome copy, that will find a home in the nicest of stamp collections. It has three full margins, and is just barely into the fourth margin at top left. The image is strong and fresh, and the cancel does not spoil the look of the stamp.
Missing from many collections due to its price for a sound copy, the US Number 1 is among the most iconic of stamps. Even collectors who don't collect the United States will still enjoy owning a US #1, along with the bragging rights!
