    US 1193 First Orbit Project Mercury John Glenn NASA Space Friendship Feb 20 1962
    This
    First Day of Issue Cover, was actually
    cancelled
    on the
    same day and time
    as
    Friendship 7
    was orbiting Earth
    This issue marks the
    First Time
    that a US Postage stamp issued the
    exact
    same day as the event it celebrates
    Celebrating the
    First Orbital Flight
    of a US Astronaut, Lt. Col. John H. Glenn, Jr.
    US Astronaut, Lt. Col.
    John H. Glenn
    , Jr. later represented his state of Ohio in the
    US Senate
    and with
    every new
    conquest in Space, this Monumental historic

    (Hal, above, also sent an ebay msg) -- "I would like to
    thank you
    for the
    bonus stamps and covers
    ...
    that the
    bonus stamps
    were a
    thrill
    for me. It turns out that almost all the cheapest
    stamps you sent me
    were better
    than the ones in my collection. I spent an entire afternoon scanning them and comparing them
    to my existing stamps.
    It was more fun than I have had in a long time
    . ...
    Thank you again ... they were so much fun!"   -- Hal
    "I received the First Man Moon Landing Maximum Card and
    it is just excellent
    .
    Also, there was
    an extra surprise
    of little packs of stamps.. many of which are space stamps..
    What a delight
    . You are ...
    to
    (help me)
    keep the cost down
    ...
    very generous
    .
    Your new friend, Lee" (by ebay msg; March, 2021)
    Packet of Burundi stamps arrived today in excellent shape, as advertised!
    (Also, it arrived ahead of the estimated schedule by four days.)
    I must add that the contents of the Mystery Bonus was an unexpected, but welcome addition!
    (All those materials were useful, as I had none of those.) Packet well armored. Seller is recommended.
    Thanks George and Co. for this appealing packet.
