HISTORY Stamp collecting is the collecting of postage stamps and related objects, such as covers (envelopes or packages with stamps on them). It is one of the world's most popular hobbies, with estimates of the number of collectors ranging up to 20 million in the United States alone. Collecting is not the same as philately, which is the study of stamps. A philatelist often does, but need not, collect the objects of study, nor is it necessary to closely study what one collects.
A first day cover (FDC) is typically an envelope with a postage stamp canceled on its first day of issue. A commemorative cover has a commemorative design and special postmark to mark the date of a specific event. A cover is an envelope or package, typically with stamps that have been canceled. The term originates from the practice of covering a letter by folding a separate sheet about it to physically protect and prevent infringement of confidentiality. In the first half of the 19th century it became the fashion to cut the cover into a diamond or lozenge shape. This was the precursor version of the envelope as it is known today. Its popularity was ensured in Britain when the lozenge design was adopted for the special pre-paid postage envelopes and covers issued at the launch the postal reforms of 1840.
A philatelic cover is a cover sent through the mails for the purpose of creating a collectible item. While some collectors specialize in philatelic covers, especially first day covers (FDC) and cachet covers, others regard them as artificial objects that are not reflective of real-world usage, and will pay a higher price for "commercial covers".
Stamp collectors began to send mail to each other and to themselves early on, and philatelic mail is known from the late 19th century. The possible kinds of philatelic covers are only limited by the imagination of creative collectors, but there are a number of well- known categories: First day covers, mailed on the first day of issue of a stamp. The issuing country often prepares special cancels for the event; Cachet covers, sent on envelopes with additional artwork, usually relating to the theme of the stamp; Covers with special or commemorative cancellations used temporarily by a post office.
A cachet is a design or inscription, other than a cancellation or pre-printed postage, on an envelope, postcard, or postal card to commemorate a postal or philatelic event. There are official and private cachets; they commemorate everything from the first flight on a particular route, to the Super Bowl. Cachets are also frequently made, either by private companies, or a government, for First day of issue stamp events or 'Second-Day' stamp events.
The first cacheted FDC (first day cover) was produced by prominent philatelist and cachet maker George W. Linn in 1923, for the Harding Memorial stamp issue. Cachet making is considered an art form, and cachets may be produced by using any number of methods, including drawing or painting directly onto the envelope, serigraphy, block printing, lithography, engraving, laser printing, attachment of photographs or other paper memorabilia, etc. The largest and best-known cachet making companies, which typically produce thousands or tens of thousands of printed cachets for U.S. stamp issues, are Artcraft, Artmaster, Fleetwood, House of Farnam, and Colorano.
The numbering system used by Scott Publishing Co. to identify stamps is dominant among stamp collectors in the United States. The first Scott catalogue was a 21-page pamphlet with the title Descriptive Catalogue of American and Foreign Postage Stamps, Issued from 1840 to Date, Splendidly Illustrated with Colored Engravings and Containing the Current Value of each Variety. It was published in September 1868 by J.W. Scott, an early stamp dealer in New York, and purported to list all the stamps of the world, with prices for each. In subsequent years, the Scott company gave up dealing in stamps but continued to publish the catalog, gradually providing more detail as the hobby evolved and collectors became more sophisticated. In addition to the factual information about the stamps, the catalog includes price information based on market analysis and reported sales from the previous year. As of 2002, and despite annual changes to save space, the catalog was more than 5,000 pages.
THIS COLLECTION is only concerned about items related to Frank Lloyd Wright. To date there are over 350 items.1957 AIA

June 8,1966 - 2c #1280 - The 2-cent stamp features an image of Frank Lloyd Wright (1869-1959), one of the most influential architects of the twentieth century. His revolutionary approach to building, which emphasized the long, horizontal lines of a prairie landscape, was equal to his controversial private life. His most recognized masterpiece, a project that occupied him for sixteen years, was the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City. That building is depicted in the 2-cent stamp's background.
The dark blue gray 2-cent stamp was issued June 8, 1966, in Spring Green, Wisconsin, the location of Wright's Taliesin East home. It was produced as a sheet stamp printed from plates of four hundred and sold in panes of one hundred with gauge 11 x 10.5 perforations. The stamp was also issued in vertical booklet panes of six stamps used in combination with the 6-cent Franklin Roosevelt, the 11-cent Red Jet airmail, and the 13-cent Liberty Bell stamp of the Americana Series. To produce booklets with even-dollar values, slogan labels were substituted for stamps on some of the Wright stamp panes.
This stamp was designed by the staff of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. The portrait, based on a 1952 photograph by Blackstone-Shelburne, New York City, was drawn by Patricia Amarantides and Ling Po. The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in the background was also drawn by Ling Po. Lettering is by Vernon Swaback and technical revisions by John Amarantides. Howard C. Mildner and Arthur W. Dintaman of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing engraved the vignette, and Kenneth C, Wiram engraved the lettering. Frank Lloyd Wright had not previously been the subject of a U.S. stamp.

ROBIE HOUSE, CHICAGO. "Frank Lloyd Wright is considered one of the nation's most innovative architects. The masterpiece of his early work, constructed in the Prairie House style, is the Robie House in Chicago." This stamp featuring Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House was released on Feb. 4, 1998 as part of a series of stamps that honored important people and events of the 20th century. At a ceremony at Robie House, the U.S. Postal Service unveiled the new stamp and recognized two Laboratory Schools students who won a contest, sponsored by the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio Foundation, to design the corresponding Robie House cancellation stamp. The winning designs, chosen from among 200 entries submitted by students in Hyde Park schools, were created by third-grader Anne Wildman and eighth grader Walker Thisted. Final image was illustrated by Richard Waldrep of Sparks, Maryland. Widely recognized as America's most famous architect, Wright made significant contributions to modern architecture during his prolific 70-year career. Completed in 1910, Robie House epitomizes Wright's signature Prairie style, featuring sweeping horizontal planes and a low-pitched roof cantilevered dramatically beyond the walls, and a lightness and transparency provided by 174 art-glass windows and doors. The Robie House stamp is the eighth of 30 stamps to be unveiled over 30 consecutive days as part of the Postal Service's Celebrate the Century program. The 30 stamps commemorate the first two decades of the century. (Six copies of the single stamp.) Scott Catalog USA: #3182o.3182.01.1199 through 3182.06.1106

Spectacular works of architecture in New York, NY; Atlanta, GA; New Canaan, CT; Chicago, IL; Exeter, NH; Los Angeles, CA; New Haven, CT; Philadelphia, PA; and Washington, DC are immortalized on U.S. postage stamps honoring Masterworks of Modern American Architecture. Each building is depicted through a stunning photograph on the sheet of twelve 37-cent stamps. The stamps were dedicated in Las Vegas during a special ceremony as part of The American Institute of Architects Annual Convention and Design Exposition at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.
"If the power of architecture is to imagine, create and transform, then its form should inspire," said Anita Bizzotto, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, U.S. Postal Service, who dedicated the stamps. "It should elevate the things of everyday life- from commerce, to learning, to living- into the realm of the extraordinary. And Masterpieces of Modern American Architecture celebrated on these postage stamps do just that."
"This honor confirms the enduring power of architecture to elevate the human experience," said Steidl. "Each building in the series embodies the creativity and commitment of architects to help create better places for people to live, work and play."
