Description

Ink signatures, “R. E. Byrd, Jr.” and “Floyd Bennett” on the reverse of an unused 6.25 x 2.75 Chase National Bank check. In fine condition, with several vertical folds. A desirable pairing of the first men to fly to the North Pole; Floyd, who died at the age of 37 from pneumonia, is exceedingly rare.
