United States, Scott #5683, used(o), 2022, Commemorative, Shel Silverstein (1930-1999), an American writer, poet, cartoonist, songwriter, and playwright, and best known a children's book author, his children's works have been translated into more than 47 languages and have sold more than 20 million copies, stamp show a boy catching an apple from the 'Giving Tree,' forever stamp (58¢) serpentine die cut simulated perforations: 11, no watermark, self-adhesive issued on non-water soluble panes, lime green, red, and gray, Scott 2019 catalog value: not listed. Nicely centered, light, quarter-to-half circular, black-inked, double-rimmed socked-on-the-nose cancellation with partial mailing details on the upper right border of the stamp and largely clear of the main image, this stamp was soaked from the mailing envelope using the Bestine solvent and placed on a piece of black trimmed card stock for an attractive album mounting, good perforations; centering, mounting, and image free cancel warrants a selling price premium. This is not a 'bait-and-switch;' the stamp you see will be the one you receive.
Please review my terms of sale. If you are not ordering from the United States, there is a $US1.45 additional postage expense that needs to be added to the price of the stamp. If you are ordering from the United States, there is only a $US0.63 added postage expense. Also, if you make additional purchases from my offerings, they can all go in one mailing at no extra shipping expense for the added purchases. I will send the purchase by US first class mail, since the relatively low value of the stamp does not warrant signature or tracking mail. Hence the buyer assumes risk of loss or non-delivery. I will keep a scan of my mailing to verify that the correct mailing address was used. If not satisfied, return the stamp to me at your own expense, and I will refund the cost, but not my postage to you. Additional purchases can go in the same mailing with no additional shipping charges to you. If the stamp is not as described, I will refund the cost and reimburse you for postage both ways.
By way of reference, I am an American Philatelic Society member (195176) and an American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA) member. Thank you for looking, and I hope this is the perfect stamp to fill that gap in your collection.
