This United States First Day Cover features the 7-cent U.S. Air Mail stamp Scott #C49, issued to honor Alaska's statehood in 1959. The official First Day of Issue postmark, dated January 3, 1959, is from Juneau, Alaska, clearly canceling the stamp. The cover's cachet is a printed blue design depicting a bear walking on a mountainous landscape, with the text "The United States Honors Alaska's Statehood" prominently displayed, along with the words "First Day Cover" and the initials "HF" at the bottom, indicating the cachet maker. This cover is addressed to Joseph Simek of Gates Mills, Ohio, with a typed address on the front.
