I haven't seen any exactly like this one. In some archive I saw one with a different Washington stamp making this good for a collection.
Is this rare and what would something like this be worth to a collector?
Thanks, Steve

There are many different cachets and commemorations in 1932 involving George Washington. They were generally mass produced souvenirs and most will remain unsold in $1 boxes today. Supply exceeds today's demand.

I sold one (on ebay) with the same cachet on an ornate souvenir card a couple of months ago for $5.

After I posted this I saw some similar on ebay that sold for very little. One wouldn't think so. The internet has both helped and hurt the market for things. Stuff I used to sell to antique stores back in the early 90's for $20 to $30 now can't even be sold for a dollar online.

I have an unusual item. It is a ledger sized file folder postmarked multiple times over a 3 month period:





This is the left side only. On the right side there are six more postmarks with different images below each postmark.

Really not sure what to consider this item. It is a folder with twelve postmarks, twelve stamps, and 12 different images celebrating events like the Battle of Long Island, Evacuation Day, Constitution Day, etc...


The name and address written on the inside flap of the folder yielded some interesting Google results.
