Title:
Roy Rogers & Dale Evans Signed 1966 FDR First Day Cover — PSA/DNA Certified

Description:
Original First Day Cover honoring Franklin D. Roosevelt as part of the Prominent Americans Series, hand-signed by both Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, the beloved Hollywood cowboy couple. Postmarked Hyde Park, NY, January 29, 1966, the envelope features a 6¢ FDR commemorative stamp and a black-and-white cachet portrait of the 32nd President, along with illustrations reflecting his era and legacy.

Roy Rogers has signed boldly in black ink and added “& Trigger” beneath his name — a charming reference to his famous horse. Below that, Dale Evans has also signed in full, making this an especially appealing dual-signed piece from two icons of American Western cinema.

The envelope is preserved in excellent condition, and the signatures are clear, bold, and well-positioned. The cover is authenticated and encapsulated in a PSA/DNA tamper-evident holder, labeled:
“FIRST DAY COVER – ROY ROGERS/DALE EVANS – AUTHENTIC AUTO – PSA/DNA CERTIFIED”, certification number 85724932.

Historical Context:
Roy Rogers (1911–1998) and Dale Evans (1912–2001) were among the most recognizable entertainers of mid-20th-century America, starring in dozens of Western films and the hit TV show The Roy Rogers Show. Known for their wholesome image, musical talent, and dedication to family values, the couple also became cultural ambassadors of American optimism and frontier spirit.

This First Day Cover commemorates Franklin D. Roosevelt, a towering figure of the same era, who led the nation through the Great Depression and World War II. The intersection of the Western legends’ autographs with a tribute to FDR makes this an appealing collectible that bridges presidential history and Golden Age Hollywood.
