Collins Cover Announcement 

CARTER G. WOODSON

This issue in the on-going Black Heritage Series was to honor Woodson who was a notable historian, publisher and administrator. The handpainted cachet features a large portrait with the text below. Using the last name as a basis, I chose Carteret, N.J. as the unofficial city, and a single is tied with this hand cancel. Another single has the official Washington, D.C. hand cancel "First Day of Issue".
