First Geese

First Geese

First Geese [Scott #365: $0.52 used] was printed by lithography from 1946-1947.  The paper was ungummed and imperforate because the postal facilities had been so damaged by American bombing at the close of WWII.  The design was taken from a print by the famous master of printing, Hokusai.
