1921, "$ 050 c" on "VALOR 10 CENTAVOS" on 50c. green, (inverted as always), cancelled by three-line "Compañía Colombo-Alemana/De/Transportes Aéreos" handstamp.

Faint horizontal crease and small thin spot, both being usual faults found in these issues. A rarity, only featuring six stamps and no covers recorded. Signed Kessler. Colomphil 18.
