Today's bonus coverage (pun intended) of Fleetwood's commemoration of the 200th anniversary of the Lewis and Clark expedition features two of the four philatelic-numismatic covers (PNCs) it produced in connection with the US Mint's Westward Journey Series of five-cent coins (nickels).
Two of the four PNCs that Fleetwood issued used artwork created by Paul and Chris Calle for individual commemorative covers in the "Lewis and Clark Bicentennial Collection" that I have presented over the last week or so.
On the
Keelboat PNC, the artwork is only slightly modified - multiple trees are removed from the background. On the
Ocean in View PNC, the entire background scene has been removed so that the figures of Lewis and Clark appear without distraction.
For each of the PNCs, I have included the Collection's anniversary cover (first) so that it is easy to compare the artwork.
Enjoy!
That's all folks!
