Own First Flight Zeppelin Cover – A Scarce Piece of Postal History
Graf Zeppelin First Flight Covers from 1930 are among the most sought-after and storied items in American postal history. These covers were carried on the first Europe-Pan America round trip of the Graf Zeppelin airship (LZ-127) and marked a major milestone in both philately and aviation.
The "Europe Pan-America Round Flight" stamp notes that this First Flight Cover made a round-trip journey on the Graf Zeppelin. The postmarks tell the story. A Varick Street Station, NY cancel ties the $2.60 Zeppelin (C15) to the flight cover. It then traveled by ship to Spain and was forwarded to Friedrichshafen, Germany, where it was placed aboard the Zeppelin. The cover was transported across the Atlantic to Brazil before returning to the US.
Since that time, this stamp has been carefully kept by a collector who knew the value of this scarce cover and appreciated the romance of that first flight. Now you can carry on with the tradition. Order yours today.
