1920, 10c. "Tilted Plane", cut to shape or slightly into at left, otherwise fresh with large margins, showing nearly complete strike of Barranquilla c.d.s. in violet of the National Post, clearly dated "14 Apr 1920", thus representing the Cartagena-Barranquilla Flight of 14 April 1920. Slight staining and imperfections at left, of no importance for this unique item. Of great significance: the only vignette recorded bearing the datestamp of 14 April, and consequently being the only recorded reference of this flight. Scott C4.
