About This Item
WILL ROGERS (1879-1935). Rogers was the pre-eminent American vaudeville performer, actor, and humorous social commentator of the early Twentieth Century. Signature. 4” x 5”. July 6, 1930. Fort Garland, Colorado. A first day cover signed “Will Rogers” and addressed to Wm. L. Reynolds of Lakewood, Ohio. A first day cover is an envelope bearing a stamp or stamps postmarked on their day of issue. This stamp highlights the founding of Fort Garland in 1858 in what was then the New Mexico Territory. Though the fort was abandoned in 1883, on July 4, 1930, an airport was opened nearby, which the first day cover also spotlights. The envelope and first day cover are in very good condition, though the Fort Garland postmark is a bit faded.
