I'm interested in buying a Sally Ride First Day Cover (FDC) issued to honor her as the first American woman in space. Only wanted is a first day of issue cover with the Sally Ride commemorative stamp and not a flight cover for her STS-7 or -41G flight.

Search in eBay under "Sally Ride 2018 stamp FDC." They have some in the $5-$10 range with a signature facsimile cancel; and an STS-7 mission patch cancel for the First Day issue date. They come with hand-drawn and printed cachet designs, and plain envelope (no artwork) covers.

I got several of them (FDCs) here somewhere of three to four different cachet types. Let me check and get back to you very soon.

Thanks, guys. A Sally Ride FDC is needed for an up-coming feature in the Stamps and Covers forum in our Space Cover of the Week presentation (See our current SCOTW on Apollo 9).
