New Mexico 100th Anniversary Stamp 1/6/12
2012 January 6
A new statehood centennial stamp is being released in Santa Fe New Mexico. Is anyone planning on attending the First Day Ceremony? If so, I'd love to get a USPS Ceremony Program for my Route 66 collection.
If you can't find anyone attending, I note that the latest Postal Bulletin has assigned Stock No. 468191* as a philatelic product entitled the "Ceremony Program" at $6.95 available from USPS Stamp Fulfillment Services.
wt1, Yeah they USPS started that a year or so ago were you could purchase a FDOICP. They also began selling the stock cards shrunkwrapped with the stamps with a FDOI digital postmark and stamp on some issues.
Acronyms for long titles for what is essentially the US Post Office:
USPS = United States Postal Service (used since 1971) SFS = Stamp Fulfillment Services (Kansas City, MO) FDOICP = First Day of Issue Ceremony Program
(By the way, the acronym USPOD = United States Post Office Department, which referenced the US Post Office in the period prior to the 1971 name change.)
United States Postal Service ****** USPS United States Power Squadrons *** USPS University Support Personnel System (various locations) *** USPS Uniform Staff Payroll System (software) ** USPS Uniform Statewide Payroll System (Texas) * USPS Union of Swiss Philatelic Societies (Switzerland)
Quote: I will be in Santa Fe on Friday and will see about getting you one of these stamps-looks like they need to be stamped with the date by the USPS but I'll check-I'll get back to you-Happy New Year--John
...this is step #1. It is nice to know that someone does care and will make an effort when asked.
