Lot 485
United States, 1911, Balloon Advertising Ephemera. Lot of three different early ballonist advertising items including 1) a handbill for the 1911 Homecoming festival in Greensburg, Indiana featuring aeronaut Oscar T. Cox and his aeronaut dog "Skiboo"- both flying in the event, parachuting and racing each other, every day of the fair, 2) an advertising flyer for C.A. Nichols (Chili, N.Y.) for his line of advertising balloons, kites and other aerial devices. The flyer is printed and illustrated on both sides and 3) an unused #10 envelope with the cachet of C. C. Phelps (McConnellsville, N.Y.) picturing a balloon flight. Phelps was in business during 1900/1920. Some faults, but an attractive lot.
Estimated Value $150 - 250.
