1992 Wildflowers of America - Pixelated Bouquet Design
This First Day Cover features a distinctive pixelated wildflower bouquet cachet in shades of pink, lavender, and teal on a black background, created by Technical Cachets. The cover bears a complete plate block of four 29-cent Wildflowers stamps (Kalmia, Round-lobed Hepatica, Mexican Hat, and Wild Columbine) canceled on July 24, 1992, in Columbus, Ohio. The modern cross-stitch aesthetic of the cachet artwork complements the botanical theme of this popular commemorative series.

The cachet features a pixelated/cross-stitch style artwork of a pink wildflower bouquet on a black background, rendered in a needlework or digital pixel aesthetic with pink, lavender, and teal colors. Four 29-cent USA Wildflowers of America stamps are affixed as a plate block, depicting Kalmia, Round-lobed Hepatica, Mexican Hat, and Wild Columbine flowers. Two circular hand cancellations read 'Columbus, OH / July 24 / 1992 / 43216.' The plate number 'P4444' is visible on the selvage margin.
