There are only three of these aircraft in existence today. This is the beginning story of one them.
I do encourage anyone with a love of history and research to join me in a slow thread (to solve a mystery).

Ok, I admit it. I've been going through classics withdrawals all day - like a guy standing in line at a coffee shop on doctor's orders to avoid caffeine.
But, onward....back to future.
Hmm. that's a great line. wonder if it's been taken.

What did Google AI call my method of collecting again?
A Cathedral of Clutter? A Monument to the Misplaced?
I forget.
Please enjoy this poultry/chicken stamp as I go in search of the post WW2 Ocean liner material.

Nome Alaska. 1970's.
The Global PenPals program.
The recipient of this letter gave me this along with other Alaska material. I returned most of it - telling her, "Your family will want this!"
Her Dad has an extensive collection of Wells Fargo covers.
I don't need no trouble from the Wild West.
