1934 Wisconsin Tercentenary 3 Cent Stamp - Nicolet's Landing

This item is a 1934 United States postage stamp commemorating the Wisconsin Tercentenary, specifically depicting 'Nicolet's Landing on the Shores of Green Bay'. The stamp is predominantly purple (violet) in color with a rectangular shape and perforated edges, indicating it was intended for postal use. The central image portrays a historical scene with several figures, including what appears to be Jean Nicolet, a French explorer, standing prominently with his arms outstretched, facing a group of Native Americans. Another figure stands by a canoe on the water. The scene is set on a shoreline with some distant trees or foliage visible. The border of the stamp features decorative neoclassical or art deco-inspired patterns on both vertical sides, with prominent '3¢' denominations in the lower left and right corners. At the top, the inscription reads '1634 - WISCONSIN TERCENTENARY - 1934', and below the central image, 'NICOLET'S LANDING ON THE SHORES OF GREEN BAY'. The bottom edge of the stamp clearly shows 'UNITED STATES POSTAGE'. The stamp appears to be 'used' as it has postmarks (cancelations) across it, specifically several wavy horizontal lines in a dark ink that obscure parts of the central image and text. The perforations around the edges seem generally intact, though some wear or irregularities might be present due to handling and cancellation. The overall condition, while used, appears to be fair to good for a stamp of this age, with the primary details of the design still discernible despite the postmark.
