Charles Lindbergh Signed Poster Dropped from the Spirit of St. Louis Signed poster dropped from the sky by Charles Lindbergh during his national tour with the Spirit of St. Louis, 22 x 28, signed in the lower right in fountain pen, "Charles A. Lindbergh." The poster features an image of the historic Spirit of St. Louis airplane, with a large salutation and text featuring an indirect apology, in part: "Greetings: Because of the limited time and the extensive itinerary of the tour of the United States now in progress to encourage popular interest in aeronautics, it is impossible for the 'Spirit of St. Louis' to land in your city. This message from the air, however, is sent you to express our sincere appreciation of your interest in the tour and in the promotion and expansion of commercial aeronautics in the United States." In good to very good condition, with intersecting folds, heavy overall wrinkling, and dampstaining (causing haloing and mirroring to the bold signature). Following his groundbreaking transatlantic flight, Lindbergh embarked on a promotional tour of the United States, landing in 92 cities in 48 states between July 20 and October 23, 1927. When passing over smaller cities and towns, Lindbergh would intermittently fly within 1,000 feet of crowds gathered to observe, dropping one of these signed posters from the sky, loaded into a canvas tube. A unique memento from the pioneering aviator.
