EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare 3c Washington trial color card proof, created by the esteemed American Bank Note Company in 1881. The trial color proof was specifically prepared for display at the prestigious International Cotton Exposition held in Atlanta that same year. During this significant event, the Post Office Department sought to impress visitors with their collection of stamps, so they commissioned the American Bank Note Company to produce card proofs of previously issued stamps in five vibrant colors - black, scarlet, brown, green, and blue. This particular proof features an intricate engraving of General George Washington's profile. The image exudes a sense of historical significance as it captures a moment from America's rich political past during the late 19th century. It symbolizes not only communication and correspondence but also represents the country's commitment to education and scientific institutions. Preserved by the National Postal Museum within the Smithsonian Institution, this unique piece serves as a testament to both philately enthusiasts and those interested in exploring America's postal service history. Its collectible nature makes it highly sought after among stamp collectors worldwide. As we gaze upon this remarkable artifact from our nation's heritage art collection, we are reminded of how postage stamps have played an essential role in connecting people across vast distances throughout history.
