ASSATEAGUE ISLAND NATIONAL SEASHORE in Virginia Maryland Color Photo Pictorial

Description: Assateague Island cover with pictorial postmark from Gobles, MI dated April 24, 2021. Color printed cachet #2936 of horses on beach by Alvin Eckert USCS #9964. This barrier island is home to ferral horses that are divided into two groups. The Virginia herd is managed by the Chincoteague Fire Dept. The Maryland herd is managed by the US NPS. The Maryland herd is herded and swim each July to Chincoteague Island. They are undersized horses (14 hands) called "ponies", that are auctioned off. Thus, we have the annual event called the "pony swim". See the web pages for the details of the Seashore's wildlife, recreation and events.
