The cachet on this plain white cover consists entirely of printed technical text (no artwork illustration on the left side) detailing philatelic specifications for the $0.29 Space Block Joint Issue stamp. The right side features a pictorial cancellation showing a globe with 'CHICAGO, IL 60607 / MOSCOW, RUSSIA' and a line-drawn Space Shuttle illustration with 'FIRST DAY OF ISSUE' text. The stamp depicted is a USA 29-cent space-themed stamp showing spacecraft/satellites in orbit with vivid magenta, yellow, cyan, and black colors. The cover is numbered #3 of 10 and notes designers Vladimir Beilin and Robert McCall.
