    Description

    A beautiful collectible 4 stamp block set of U.S. postage stamps issued February 20th, 1962 in honor of the first orbital flight with a U.S. astronaut. Lt. Colonel John H. Glenn Jr. piloted the Atlas launched "Friendship 7" Capsule on a 4 hour, 55 minute 22 second three orbit flight.
    These stamps have never been used and are as fresh as the day they were sold at the Post Office almost 60 years ago! Suitable for framing, they would make a great gift to anyone who worked in the space industry or is interested in space exploration!
    See my other auctions for blocks of historical significance and other space industry stamp blocks!
    All stamps are Mint Never Hinged.
