COVERS, WORLDWIDE AIRMAIL ISSUES — Catapults
LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
Lots 1069-1076 are a remarkable holding of about 1,250 mostly different mounted and annotated zeppelin, DO-X or catapult covers and picture postcards. They are primarily Germany, but the U.S. and other worldwide countries also have significant numbers of flown covers. They appear to have all the various proper markings, often with the zeppelin stamps and/or printed cachets for the flight involved, plus there are some related modern event covers. Interspersed are historical and philatelic info from the web, newspaper clippings, souvenir cards, and other ephemera including facsimiles. A rare opportunity for so much better material from this popular specialty.
