Barack Obama Election and Inauguration Day Covers
Barrack Obama envelopes and stamps with the date of his inauguration as US President, along with other envelopes and stamps that mark the historic occasion, are beginning to surface.
Shown above is a "Barack Obama Life in Stamps" cover.
The six American stamps on the cover reflect the story of President Barack Obama's Life. Born in Honolulu Hawaii, graduate of Columbia University, practicing attorney and professor of law, elected to represent Illinois in the U.S. Senate, and elected President of the United States. All six stamps are canceled with the January 20, 2009 Inauguration Day postmark.
We've also seen the following Obama philatelic items on offer:
a Barack Obama cachet with a 42c Flag stamp affixed and canceled with a special Washington, DC Inauguration Day pictorial postmark.
a Barack Obama & Joe Biden cachet with a 42c Flag stamp canceled with a 1/20/09 Inauguration Day Washington, DC pictorial postmark.
a President Obama & First Lady Michelle Obama cachet with a 42c Flag stamp canceled 1/20/09 with Inauguration Day Washington, DC pictorial postmark.
a Barack Obama Election Day Cover canceled on November 4, 2008 in Washington, DC, the day Barack Obama was elected 44th President of the United States.
a Barack Obama Victory Speech Cover canceled on November 4, 2008, in Chicago, IL where Barack Obama gave his famous victory speech in Grant Park after being elected President of the United States.
These items may become very popular with Obama fans as well as stamp collectors.
