Colonel Robert Shaw inspecting the 54th Massachusetts Regiment & First Day Cover

Description

This great picture collage salutes the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, one of the first volunteer black regiments raised after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation by Abraham Lincoln. The collage features a picture of their commander Robert Shaw inspecting his troops.  Highlighting the collage is the First Day Cover of the Stamps issued to honor the 100th Anniversary of the Signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. O
n the day a stamp is issued, it is only available in the city where it is issued and the Post Office certifies this by canceling the stamp “First Day of Issue.”
This stamp was issued in Chicago, Ill.
Overall, a great collectible for any Civil War Buff.
The size of this matted picture is 10" x 13" and will fit any 10" x 13" inch frame.
(
a standard size). Solid Oak frames are available for an additional with no increase in shipping charges. (This option does not apply when shipping outside the US. Please inquire as to what options are available.)
I make all these collages by hand.  As a history buff as well as a lover of old movies and all types of sports, the key to each picture is the research behind it.  Deciding what movies should go with a particular star or what game or series would best reflect a certain sports hero is crucial to a successful collage. I then design each picture individually and lay out the design on the mat.  Finally, I cut each mat based on that design and assemble the collage.
