Clean example of the 1921 "Airmail to Halifax N.S. 1921" overprinted airmail issue on first flight cover, destined for Halifax. The first flight left Botwood, but ran into engine troubles which forced an emergency landing. On restarting the plane, the Pilot (Major Cotton) was injured and the remainder of the flight was cancelled, with the mail sent by train (and ship) to Halifax. Attractively written up on album page. 2022 Scott Specialized US$225.00 =
