Newfoundland Air Posts
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
3058 c ImageNEWFOUNDLAND, 1919, 3c Red Brown, Hawker Air Post (C1, SG 142). Well-centered, tied by "St. John's Nfld Apr. 12, 1919 2-PM" postmark on cover to London, England, manuscript "per Aeroplane", Official Seal on back, cover with tiny pinholes are left and small tear at bottom (both are trivial and not noted on certificate)

VERY FINE. AN UNUSUALLY FRESH AND CHOICE HAWKER FLIGHT COVER.

Postmaster J. A. Robinson of St. John's overprinted 200 stamps, of which only 95 were used. The plane was forced down at sea due to a defect in the cooling system after covering only 1,100 miles. The mail bag was immersed, and some of the stamps were washed off of the covers and replaced at a later date. This cover is remarkable for its freshness.

With 1971 B.P.A. certificate. Unitrade C$35,000.00 (Image)
