This is "A Celebration FDC," a special envelope released by the Irish Post Office in 2020, with four U2 commemorative stamps affixed to it and a postmark from the day of release (approximately 129mm in length and 192mm in width, respectively).
Four important U2 albums have been selected: "The Joshua Tree," "Achtung Baby," "All That You Can't Leave Behind," and "Songs of Experience." The stamp sheet features one stamp each featuring icons that symbolize each album (two "N" stamps for domestic mail in Ireland and two "W" stamps for international mail).
The special envelope features a photo of the band's performance at Dandelion Market in Dublin in 1979 taken by a photographer from the famous Irish music magazine "Hot Press," and includes an insert with explanatory text about the release of the commemorative stamps. The postmark from the day of release is also printed on the envelope, making it a collectible "First Day Cover"!
It was intentionally released with a postmark, so it is considered to be used, but it is a must-see item for enthusiasts, as you will be happy just to display it.
Please note that this U2 commemorative stamp series is not shrink-wrapped and is a very delicate item that is easily damaged. Also, please note that this item will be sold as is as it is because it is shipped directly from the manufacturer (returns and exchanges are not possible).
