Right page reads: “Charles A. Lindbergh (1902-1974) The youthful American Aviator who flew the first solo flight of the Atlantic from New York to Paris in the Spirit of St. Louis. A Milestone in the History of Flight. Built in San Diego, the Spirit of St. Louis was first flown April 28, 1927, with Lindbergh at the controls. Seconds seemed like hours as the Spirit of St. Louis, heavily laden with fuel, lumbered aloft into an uncertain destiny from Roosevelt Field, New York, May 20, 1927. After thirty-three and a half hours of flight a tired, chilled, and dazed Lindbergh arrived at Le Bourget Aerodrome, Paris. There, engulfed by a floodlit human sea, he was as a winged god descended to the earth, May 21, 1927. This commemorative piece was issued by the International Aerospace Hall of Fame on the precise fiftieth anniversary of the beginning of Lindbergh’s epoch flight.” Below is a printed map of the plane’s route.
