Visiting Hancock Shaker Village & First Day Ceremony for Shaker Design Stamps

We took a nice vacation to western Massachusetts and planned to visit the Hancock Shaker Village. As it happened, the day we thought to go was also the day of the Shaker Design Stamp first day of issue ceremony--an amazing happy accident.

Always a pleasure. Certainly a departure from what I usually post.

Great video Ken! And I love these new stamps! Got the horses 🐎 🐎 yesterday!

[@KensStampCollection]

Oh nice. Enjoy your horses

This was a lovely and interesting video! What a good accident to have the first issue day ceremony as well. Perfect. I really enjoyed the outing, Ken. Thanks!

We had a fun little day out

Wow! What a fortuitous find! I don't collect covers but would consider going to at least one of these as they will likely soon be a thing of the past. I do like that you could get your minisheet cancelled since I prefer used. It seems like it is more of a souvenir sheet if there is one stamp and more of a minisheet if there are multiple stamps but not sure where the line is lol

[@KensStampCollection]

And there are three types of mini-sheets to confuse me more. The ones like this, where all the stamps are different; ones like the Horses sheet where there are multiple copies of multiple stamps; and ones where there are just one stamp repeated 20 times, like the Marilyn Monroe mini-sheet.

Thanks your sharing the video, it is far from your home?

Just a few hours, and a very quiet area of the state.
