I like this cover for a couple of reasons ...
Scott #1399 (1970) Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, is I think, a very attractive stamp, both in appearance and for what it commemorates.
Scott # 1892-93 (1981) are a booklet pair that isn't too commonly seen, especially together and cancelled. I have a small and growing flag stamp collection ... this is a nice addition.
Scott #1115 (1958) is one stamp of a 4-stamp series commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln-Douglas debates. Lincoln stamps are a thriving topical interest (not one that I'm in on ... yet).

Thanks to the collector/dealer who sent these to me ... occasionally I enjoy the cover stamps as much or more than the stamps I ordered.
