Massachusetts -- Fitchburg 1929 sea and airmail cover to London via Boston and Galway Ireland Cover originated in Fitchburg MA, went to Boston and put on board SS Karlsruhe for transatlantic shipment to Galway Ireland. Green event label attached enroute. The label was used in connection with August 26, 1929 Galway to London experimental flight that was intended to speed up mail from America. Flight is listed as AC4 in Irish catalogs. 1,234 pieces of mail were carried, postmarked Boston or New York. Mail was flown by hydroplane from the Karlsruhe to Galway, then by normal airmail to London. This was hoped to save one or two days in transporting mail between USA and Britain. This ship-shore-air service was never repeated. (Image1)
