Eagle Shield Variable Rate Stamps with Rogers Government Printing Cartoon

The pink cover features a black-and-white cartoon by 'Rogers' depicting two workers at a door labeled 'Govt. Printing Office / Postage Dept.' with the caption: 'Who's that character who keeps coming in and asking have we made any mistakes lately?' Nine USA variable rate (Eagle Shield) stamps in $0.05 and $0.10 denominations are affixed in two strips, tied by a circular date stamp cancellation from Oklahoma City, OK dated August 20, 1992. The text 'FIRST DAY OF ISSUE' appears in bold print between the two strips.

This First Day Cover features a humorous black-and-white cachet artwork by Rogers, depicting two workers at the Government Printing Office Postage Department, with a caption humorously referencing mistakes.
