SCOTT #630 WHITE PLAINS 2 CENT

     A commemorative honoring the 150th anniversary of the Battle of White Plains was issued in 1926 in a 100 stamp sheet. Later that year, a special 25 stamp sheet, with a commemorative inscription in the sheet margin, was issued with the same design for the International Philatelic Exhibition--this was the first U.S. souvenir sheet. Only 107,398 were printed, making it the rarest of all souvenir sheets.
