Rhode Island Tercentenary Issue
The "1st Rhode Island" Revolutionary War-All African American Regiment
Scott #777 Issued on May 4, 1936 in Pawtucket, RI
This cover has an unofficial City First Day Cancel from Warren, RI
This cover is doubly of interest as a collectable to your Webmaster. I grew up in 
Saunderstown, RI and worked on the farm of F.R.'s son, I.R. Hazard. He was also an avid stamp collector and it was Irving who first introduced your Webmaster to the joys of stamp collecting.
