1934 New Zealand Photographic Airmail Essay by J. Berry, measuring 200 x 160 mm, showing 4 different designs: a 1sh green plane over Wellington Heads, 2sh chestnut plane over River Avon, 3sh brown plane over Mercury Bay and 4sh blue two planes over a map of N.Z.. Thought to have been prepared for the 1934 stamp competition. As of 1996 this was the only example known of these designs outside of N.Z. Post Office Archives. Ex. Len Jury sale of April 26, 1996. Included is a letter from Tom Lee, who was president of the New Zealand Philatelic Foundation in 1996 who gives a history of the essay. Tape marks on the back do not detract, show as slightly raised areas on the front, still a great and unique showpiece for the specialist. (Image)
