Postmark: Triplex Cancel (with Shoe-Print Killer 2) – Bar Harbor, Maine – Aug 21, 1935
Postcard: Colored illustration of Great Head, Bar Harbor, located on Mount Desert Island, captioned “Great Head, Bar Harbor, Me. Mt. Desert Island” and noted as the “Highest Headland on Atlantic Coast”.
Justification of Maximum Concordance:
This maximum card originates from the United States and features Great Head in Bar Harbor, a prominent landmark within Acadia National Park. The stamp, issued in 1934 as part of the National Parks series, depicts a scenic view of Acadia National Park, reinforcing thematic unity between the philatelic and pictorial elements. The postmark is a CDS from Bar Harbor, Maine, applied on Aug 21 1935, which corresponds to the location of the depicted site and the subject of the stamp. Together, the stamp, the postcard image, and the cancellation achieve maximum concordance by uniting subject, location, and historical context in a single philatelic piece.
