This Fleetwood First Day Cover features the 1974 U.S. 10¢ Expo '74 "Preserve the Environment" stamp, postmarked on its official first day of issue, April 18, 1974, in Spokane, Washington.
Expo '74 was the first world's fair dedicated entirely to environmental themes, held in Spokane to celebrate ecological awareness and man's relationship with nature during a period of growing environmental consciousness in the 1970s.
The colorful stamp design depicts a stylized runner carrying a torch across a globe-like map, symbolizing global environmental stewardship, while the matching Fleetwood cachet illustrates a family alongside the U.S. Pavilion dome and biosphere elements with the inscription "A Salute to Expo '74 Preservation of the Environment."
A fine addition for collectors of world's fair issues, environmental topicals, or Fleetwood cachets, this cover remains in excellent condition with a crisp postmark and vibrant artwork.
