#3694 - 37¢ Hawaiian Missionary - sheet of 4

The original Dawson cover survived merely by chance. An overstuffed furnace and a cleaner with an eye for unusual philatelic treasures saved the only known use of the 2-cent value from the original Hawaiian Missionary stamps from being discarded as garbage. While the original cover is now worth several million dollars, adding this tribute to the original Hawaiian postage stamps to your collection won’t break the bank. The term “missionaries” associated with these stamps comes from most of their issuance being used for correspondence between the United States and the religious missionaries working within the Kingdom of Hawaii.
