Lot 608
Aviation, 2005, Steve Fossett UNFLOWN "Round-the-World Flight Cover (No. 7/12). This unflown cover is franked by US postage and one of Fossett's "37c Private Post" "Round-the-World" Private Post stamps. Because the private stamps were not allowed to be used on the 500 official flown covers (these 12 covers were removed prior to the flight), these 12 covers are the only ones to bear this private post label. A similair cover sold last year in another sale for about $2,500. Now that Steve Fossett is deceased, demand for this piece will undoubtedly be increased.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,500.
