Collins Cover Announcement
ARCTIC ANIMALS
POLAR BEAR
This is a heartwarming cachet that depicts a tender moment in the cold, frozen environment of the Arctic North. It pictures a mother polar bear with two adorable cubs on a snow-covered shoreline. The frigid steel-blue water, with ice fragments floating like miniature mobile islands, presents a nice backdrop for this precious family scene. One cub snuggles firmly into his mama's furry side, while the other mirrors his mother's ever-alert and watchful nature. The new stamp has the First Day bullseye postmark from Barrow, Alaska.
The polar bear family hand painted cachet brings to a conclusion my five-cover Arctic Animals set. There is no doubt that in the months and years ahead, the covers in this mini-series will become very sought after within our hobby. You will definitely want them in your philatelic holdings. Mother polar bear with cubs. Item #L3004 - $12.25.
