Dulles VA Post Office Opening – June 7, 1992

This cover features a navy blue pictorial machine cancellation depicting Dulles International Airport's distinctive terminal building with control tower, celebrating the opening day of the Dulles VA post office station (ZIP 20101). The cancel includes a circular USPS eagle logo on the left with 'DULLES VA / 20101' and the text 'DEDICATED TO SERVICE / OPENING DAY STATION / JUNE 7, 1992' alongside the airport illustration. The stamp used is the 29-cent Mount Rushmore/American Flag stamp (Scott #2523 or similar Flag over Mt. Rushmore issue). The plain white envelope has no separate printed cachet artwork; the pictorial cancel itself serves as the decorative element. Condition appears very good with no significant soiling.
