Description
The 1983 USPS Commemorative Mint Set features three 20 cent 4-stamp blocks on hot air ballooning (Scott #2032-2035), American inventors (Scott #2055-2058), and Street Cars (Scott #2059-2062). A total of 16 stamps of multiple denominations celebrate the 1984 Los Angeles olympics (Scott #2048-2051, C101-C112). Individual stamps honor, among others, Benjamin Franklin (Scott #2036), Joseph Priestly (Scott #2038), Scott Joplin (Scott #2044), Babe Ruth (Scott #2046), and Nathaniel Hawthorne (Scott #2047). The 1983 edition continues the trend toward a larger album with more illustrative photos and text. All stamps are mint, original gum, never hinged and included within the original sealed packet. Please review the attached photos of the album and mounted stamps carefully to make sure you approve, and let me know if you have any questions. –Joe
