AN EXCEPTIONAL, NEVER HINGED EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE 50¢ "COLUMBIA" AIRMAIL.
The stamp was issued on the occasion of the flight of the "Columbia" from Harbour Grace to the Scilly Isles off the southwest coast of England. "Columbia" was flown by Captain J. Erroll Boyd, former R.C.A.F. pilot and Lt. Harry Connor of the U.S. Navy. At the insistence of the Postmaster, a bag of mail was carried on the flight. 300 stamps were prepared for that mail, 48 of which were reserved for mail to be posted at Harbour Grace, and eight (two blocks of 4) were given to the pilots. The remaining 244 stamps were placed on sale at St. John's on September 25th, with buyers allowed only one per person. It was written that all 244 stamps were sold within 15 minutes. It is now known that 100 stamps were actually used to frank mail carried on this flight. It is assumed that the remaining 192 stamps were kept in unused condition.(Image)
