1977 Lindbergh Golden Jubilee FDC Collection & NY Legislative Resolution Lot For Sale

This lot pairs a 1977 Charles Lindbergh Golden Jubilee commemorative philatelic album by Fleetwood with a separately acquired, complementary piece of period aviation ephemera. The document is a rare 3-page 1978 New York State Legislative Resolution draft commemorating the 50th anniversary of Lindbergh’s historic address to the State Legislature. The resolution text formally honors Lindbergh's aviation milestones, his co-invention of the "pulsating perfusion pump" (the precursor to the modern artificial heart machine) alongside Nobel laureate Dr. Alexis Carrel, and includes directives to transmit the official copy to his wife, Anne Morrow Lindbergh.

Lot includes:
