The National Parks Issues of 1934

Please show us whatever you have related to the National Parks Series of 1934. Perforate,
imperforate, souvenir sheets, singles, sets, pairs, position pieces, blocks, plate blocks,
cancels, first day covers, and postal history.



I'll start it off with a plate block of six of the 5c Yellowstone Park featuring the geyser Old Faithful.

Anyone remember the article in Linns about the guy that spent over $1000.00 for a graded Great Smokey ? I wonder what he'd give MK and I for ours ?

While mine are used and not as nice , I do have a different one here with the Yosemite , I think the crater lake , acadia and glacier there are from the same series?

these are one of the first lots that I have purchased.
i think the person that collect these stamps had the right idea.
i think I would have asked the post office to give me many plate numbers if I did the selecting of the stamps.
i just like the little extra.

i wonder if the imperf could be the first series.
they say it is impossible to tell.
