Item Description
Iceland's most prevalent goose, the Graylag, is not only the largest goose in Iceland, it is the largest gray goose in the world! An adult can weigh 8 pounds, and have a wingspan of nearly 6 feet!That's certainly large enough to give a Puffin a ride, as this Graylag is doing on the handcolored cachet.
The cover bears a single of Iceland's 2005 salute to the giant waterfowl, which was the higher value in a two-stamp set (but the other bird wasn't photogenic enough to grace a cachet!). The cover bears two nice strikes of the official pictorial útgáfudagur cancel from Reykjavík on November 3, 2005.
The reverse shows this is cover #8 of only 11 covers sent to Iceland for servicing.
