Switzerland 19.5.1988 - 50th Anniversary of the Pro Aero North Pole flight to Anchorage



Switzerland 1988, "Pro Aero" stamp showing a Junkers JU-52 and Matterhorn north face in 1938. The cover which was carried by a Zurich – Anchorage DC – 10 flight on 19.5.1988, marks the 50th Anniversary of the Pro Aero North Pole flight to Anchorage.
This cover has also been postmarked by an interesting cancellation depicting a moose. The moose is an animal native to the State of Alaska in the USA.

The stamp was issued again in the year 1994 as stamp on stamp from Uruquay.
Thank you Maria for this interesting cover.
