Hello, another weekend disappeared so fast. I found this on the desk today. Just had to show it - for aviation collectors and general collectors...... do you know what struck me.... 200 years of manned flight. perhaps naively I only think of the past 100 years but in 1783 on 19 October, the Montgolfier brothers launched the first manned flight, a tethered balloon with 3 people on board, at the Folie Titon in Paris. Tirhis is overprinted SPECIMEN. No idea how I came by it. Anyone know a cat value? This was SG MS 133 from the 1982 Bicentenary of manned flight issue.
Have a lovely week. Monday tomorrow.. stay safe. Michael cddstamps.com
