Description

I simply adore the 1976 complete series of stamps, and some of the best are represented in the 21 13¢ stamps included here, namely the Spirit of '76 trio (Scott #1629-1631), the Signing of the Declaration of Independence strip of 4 (Scott #1691-1694) and the single tribute to Benjamin Franklin, first Postmaster General of the US (Scott #1690). Only one of the 50 Bicentennial State flags is included in this set, though, and the 1976 Bicentennial Souvenir Sheets are absent, so you'll need to order those separately to ensure a truly complete 1976 commemorative set. I still recall pasting the winter pastime Currier and Ives Christmas stamps (Scott #1702 & 1703) on holiday cards like it was yesterday! Please review the photos carefully to make sure you approve, and let me know if you have any questions. –Joe I tried to include this statement under 'Condition" but the ebay AI wouldn't allow me to proceed, so let me try it here: "In my experience working with all USPS year sets from the first issue in1968 to the most recent in 2023, I have found the 1976 albums the most difficult to find in perfect working order—but nothing that some mounts and a little glue stick can't fix if you're planning to use the album for permanent display."
