Bicentennial Stamp marked Northeast Harbor

This is the second of four bicentennial stamps. It is marked Northeast Harbor, Aug. 5, 1989 and at the top has 1789-1989. It has been used by the post office because it is stained with black ink. It measures 2 and one half by 4 inches and has a label on the front edge in white which reads Town of Mount Desert BICENTENNIAL. There are oval labels on the bottom and side which say: Granite State Stamps, Manchester, Laconia, 603-669-9322 and 603-524-9172.
There is a hint of ink on the edges of the stamp but the bottom still is quite clear indicating that it may have not been used as much as 009.035.1.
