Pooley in Barranquilla, couple light file folds incl. one which affects CCNA stamp of little consequence and small piece of backflap missing

VERY FINE. A REMARKABLY LATE USE DATED OCT. 17 AND THE ONLY COVER RECORDED FROM THIS DATE. ONLY SEVEN ITEMS TOTAL ARE DATED AFTER MARCH 4.

Captain Rene Bazin later wrote in a letter "During the month of October (1920), I have realized various flights over the mountains with twelve passengers" which is corroborated by his flight plans. It is documented that Bazin took several parties on short trips for a fee. It is believed that Charles Pooley, a man of considerable standing, requested a longer flight with passengers and these items were "souvenirs" of the flight. That is why this cover and the piece in the previous lot show his name. Other than this cover, only two pieces are known from this flight.
