ITEM DESCRIPTION:: ------------ 8 different first days covers put out years ago by Readers Digest Magazine in conjunction with the United States Postal Service....They took an official new release stamp and  a first day issue envelope and had USPS cancel such, and then added such cover to a large piece of paper (10.5" x 13.5")  that contains  a lot of historical facts, etc.......Since the envelopes were stored in plastic, they have remained nice and white....The gummed flaps on the envelopes have not been sealed..........The stamps have been attached to the envelopes...............

-------Also included is 10 Kellogg's stick'r trading cards with various winter sports scenes.....Not sure  of their history, but I assume it was a cereal promotion around 1980...Not sure how many cards were issued...Cards do have some wear and corner bends etc...Card size is 2" wide x 2.875" long.................................
