Signatures of Wiley Post (pencil), Will Rogers (pencil), and Harold Gatty (ink), on three individual slips. Attractively matted and framed together with two photos and an FDC honoring Post to an overall size of 16 x 18.5. In fine condition. On August 15, 1935, a private plane flown by Post and Rogers crashed just after take off, killing both passengers. Rogers had made a name for himself as one of the most well-known comedy entertainers of the era, and Post had achieved international fame when he, with Harold Gatty as navigator, set the record for the fastest circumnavigation of the globe; Post would later make the flight again by himself, becoming the first to do so solo.
