EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking first day cover commemorates the 165th anniversary of the United States Marines, with a date range from November 10, 1775 to November 10, 1940. The cover, officially cacheted in 1940, pays tribute to the rich history and tradition of the US Marines, predating America's entry into World War II. The design features an eagle in flight, embodying the strength and power of the Marine Corps, with the inscription "US Marines 165th Anniversary" and "November 10, 1775 - November 10, 1940." The use of this cover during the 1940s, a time of heightened patriotism and national pride, adds an extra layer of significance. The cover can be seen as a form of American propaganda, emphasizing the importance and longevity of the Marine Corps and its role in the country's defense. The eagle, a symbol of freedom and power, serves as a reminder of the courage and determination of the Marines throughout history. The first day cover was a popular collectible during the 1940s, and this particular design is a valuable addition to any military or historical collection. The cover not only showcases the history of the US Marines but also reflects the patriotic spirit of the time. This piece of postal history is a testament to the enduring legacy of the United States Marine Corps and the pride and dedication of those who have served.
