It has been well documented that a single order of 51,000 stamps was placed in May 1851 with the printers Rawdon, Wright, Hatch and Edson. The stamps were delivered to the postal authorities the same month and issued to the public on June 14, with 1,510 stamps being distributed among 14 post offices. Only 1,450 examples were sold over a span of nearly 6 years. Those unsold, were sent back and destroyed together with the unissued remainder (a total of 49,490 stamps). It had been clear from the beginning that demand would be very limited, since the only uses for the stamp were to pay the quadruple domestic rate, the double United States rate, and the single letter rate for the bimonthly mails from Montreal via Boston to Newfoundland, Bermuda or the British West Indies.

627 w Air Post Semi-Postals. 1927 London, Canada to London, England, 25 cents green and yellow, l.h., minor gum disturbances at bottom, well centered and fresh, v.f., signed Kessler, Diena and others. In 1927, Carling Breweries offered a $25,000 prize to the first Canadian or British pilot to fly from London, Ontario to London, England. A Stinson SM-1 was christened “Sir John Carling” and attempted the flight starting August 29, 1927, flown by pilot Terrance Tully and navigator James Medcalf. The Canadian Postal authorities approved the printing of a special label to be applied to the envelopes which were to be carried on the flight. Only 100 labels were printed and approximately 87 were affixed to envelopes. The flight had difficulties with fog and returned. It restarted on September 1 and made a landing in Maine, then later in Harbour Grace, Newfoundland. On September 7 the flight set off across the Atlantic, never to be seen again. No covers on that flight survived. The special label which was officially approved features portraits of Tully and Medcalf and shows the proposed route. This rarity is accompanied by a 2003 Sergio Sismondo AIEP certificate (“four unused examples are known, of which this is the example in best condition”), cat. $50,000 ...... (CLP6) 25,000.00

Only 100 stamps were printed and approximately 87 were affixed to envelopes. One cover (which was prepared and properly postmarked was not included in the mail bag loaded on the flight). After the scheduled stop at Harbour Grace, on the long stretch to England, the aircraft plunged into the Atlantic Ocean, killing the crew of two. The airplane was never recovered. According to the accompanying 2003 AIEP certificate from Sergio Sismondo “this is, therefore the only surviving cover from the tragic pioneer flight, and is the only used example of the special issue stamp. A unique flight cover of great importance in the postal history of Canada,” cat. $100,000 ...... (CLP6) 75,000.00
