This cover provides duo First Day cancels. A single is postmarked officially First Day of Issue from Washington, D.C., and an additional single is unofficially canceled from Schooley's Mountain, N.J. This post office is located in a general store and was very picturesque and a reminder of days gone by.

The cachet shows a lad sitting under a tree, deeply engrossed in reading a book. His illustrated thoughts/daydreams show a space shuttle type aircraft. The wateiecoloring on this FDC is quite nice and, along with the duc cancels, combine to make a nice cover. Item #X801 - $5.50.
