Norway Expo '92 — World Columbian Stamp Expo Chicago 1992

This cover features a Norwegian 330 øre stamp commemorating Expo '92 Seville, with vibrant rainbow arcs, a cityscape with flags, and a ship on blue waves. It was cancelled at the World Columbian Stamp Expo in Chicago on May 22, 1992, with a pictorial hand stamp showing a portrait and globe. The plain white envelope and crisp condition make this an excellent example of Norwegian philatelic participation in the 1992 exposition.

This cover features no printed cachet artwork on the left side — the design is plain white. The stamp is a Norwegian issue (330 øre denomination) depicting the Expo '92 theme with colorful rainbow arcs, a city skyline with flags including the Norwegian flag, and a ship on blue waves against a yellow background. Two identical pictorial cancellations appear on the cover: a circular hand stamp reading 'NORWEGIAN POST OFFICE' at top, 'CHICAGO 22.-31.5.1992' at bottom, with a central vignette showing a portrait on a stamp alongside a globe, labeled 'WORLD COLUMBIAN STAMP EXPO '92'. The cover is in excellent condition with clean white envelope.

This First Day Cover features a Norwegian 330 øre stamp commemorating Expo '92 Seville, with vibrant rainbow arcs, a cityscape with flags, and a ship on blue waves. The stamp is cancelled with a pictorial postmark from the World Columbian Stamp Expo in Chicago, dated May 22, 1992, depicting a portrait and globe. The envelope itself is plain white with no additional cachet artwork, and the condition is crisp and well-preserved.

(The automatic summaries sometimes misidentify the postmark as part of the cachet artwork.)
