Item Description
Greenland was first colonized by an outlaw and his posse . . . but the Greenlanders are nevertheless proud of their heritage that started when Eric the Red was banished from Iceland and reached Greenland's shores.Greenland honored that heritage with a set of four delicately engraved stamps in 1999 designed by Greenland artist Jens Rosing.
This handcolored FDC for the set shows the Puffin Cachets mascot proudly pretending to be Eric the Red and reenacting his arrival in Greenland. There are two nice clean strikes of the official First Day of Issue cancel of August 13, 1999 that shows a Viking longboat.
The reverse shows that this is cover #1 of only 6 sent to Greenland for servicing.
