The greatest document of its kind ever created, the Constitution of the United States forms the very cornerstone of our great nation. The fifty-five eminent Americans who met in Philadelphia during the hot summer of 1787, to create a workable government for their brand new nation, were deeply aware that their decisions would long affect the future. They created a Constitution, in the words of the Preamble, for "ourselves and our posterity." The entire drama - from the first session of the Constitutional Convention to the last state's ratification of the Bill of Rights three years later - is told in this historic United States Constitution Bicentennial Covers Collection. Each Cover also bears the postmark of the site where the Constitutional event took place, and each stamp is postmarked with the exact 200th anniversary date of the historic milestone. Stamps, envelope and information card are in perfect condition. No torn or frayed edges, no worn spots or fading.
