A Tinian-based Army Air Force B-29 Superfortress, Lady Mirage, shattered the flight record from Honolulu to Washington, DC on September 1, 1945, completing the non-stop flight in 17 hours, 21 minutes. This cover is unique (ONLY ONE WAS MADE!). It is autographed with notes by the flight commander, Lt. Col. Charles J. Miller and the navigator, Capt. E. Keller. It comes with a small map showing the flight path and a typed sheet with the names of all the flight personnel and a comprehensive description of the flight. This cover, map and flight sheet were sold at auction in 1987 for $100. Today it can be yours for just half that, the bargain price of ONLY $50.00! To reserve it, you can e-mail me at SwapMeetDave@aol.com and I'll set it aside for you for shipment upon receipt of your payment. I accept payment by check or money order. Send your order with payment to David Ahl, 12 Indian Head Road, Morristown, NJ 07960. Thank you! |
