1927 Lindbergh's Trans-Atlantic Crossing #C10
The world rejoiced when Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh completed the first solo transatlantic crossing aboard the Spirit of St. Louis, the single-engine plane he piloted on a non-stop, 33½ -hour flight from New York to Paris. To mark this historic event, the Post Office Department agreed to issue a special airmail stamp - the first time a living American was honored.
