Note: The stamp design printed on the cachet (unknown maker) Is Scott's US 743 Cliff Palace Mesa Verde National Park issued in 1934. The significance of that stamp in relationship to Pueblo Indians is the following: "For over 700 years, the Ancestral Pueblo people built thriving communities on the mesas and in the cliffs of Mesa Verde. Today, the park protects the rich cultural heritage of 26 Pueblos and Tribes and offers visitors a spectacular window into the past."
I searched several online FDC stores and here on eBay for another example of this cachet. I could not identify the maker. I am treating this as a Limited Edition from a private cachet maker.
