Souvenir Peso

Cuba's struggle for indie
pendence from Spain is re-
called by an unusual souve-
mir coin" issued in the
United States in 1897.
To raise funds for the
fight Cuban patriots ar
ranged for the manufacture
and sale Of 10000 silver
souvenir pesos" which could
be exchanged for coin Of
similar value on the evacua-
ton Of Cuba by Spain.
The well-known medallist,
Philip Martigny, contributed
his services as designer.
Senorita Leonora Molina, a
Cuban beauty prominent in
the New York patriot group,
posed for the head of Liberty
for the diverse of the piece.
The arms of the Republic
Of Cuba" were placed on the
reverse.
The insc rip tions were
something of a problem. Al
though the United States was
very sympathetic to the
Cuban cause, we were still at
peace with Spain. To avoid
International repercuSSions,
the word Souvenir" was
placed on the diverse of the
piece, and the denomination
"Un Peso" was left off of the
reverse.
The design was patented,

First Plane in 1911
The official beginning of
Naval Aviation came May 8,
1911, when the Navy ordered
it's first plane from Glenn H.
Curtiss of Hamniondsport,
N. Y, though all of 1861 has
been designated by the Secre-
tary of the Navy as THE
Golden Year of the Golden
Wings"
AS early as 1898 Assistant
Secretary of the Navy Theo-
dore Roosevelt, impressed by
Samuel P. Langley's sue
cess in flying models, had
speculated on the role of
aircraft in war. The Nays
first hesitant steps to adapt
the new art to practical uses
of the fleet were taken in
1910, when Capt. Washing
ton Irving Chambers was APP
pointed to receive all CORE
spondence and keep himself
informed Of progress in the
field of aviation.
On January Is, 1911, Eu-
gene Kelly, a civilian pilot
for CurtiSs, proved the prac-
ticability of taking off and
landing on a ship by bringing
a Curtiss biplane down on an
improvised flight deck on the
battleship Pennsylvania in
San Francisco Bay.
But early interest centered
on the Seaplane. The Navy
did not place an order with
Curtiss until he proved it
was possible to take off and
land on water in q plane that
could be hoisted aboard ship
after coming down along side.
The Al was, in fact, an
amphibian. 1t. Theodore G.
Ellyson. the Nays first avn
ator. was assigned to learn
to fly it at Hammondsport
and at the CurtiSs aviation
camp at San Diego. He was
killed in q crash in Chesa-
peake Bay in 1928.

Stamp for Naval Aviation Recalls
Curtiss Al, Nays First Plane
By BELMONT FARES
star Stamp Editor

The Nays first plane, the
CurtiSs Al of 1911, is q key
design feature of the stamp
marking the 50th anniversary
of Naval Aviation.
= The Accent commemorative,
to be issued August 20 at
San Diego. Calf, also in
cludes Nays wings of
gold." the insignia of its fly
ers.
The golden wings are be-
ing printed in blue, however.
Navy officials wanted a
stamp in the traditional blue
and gold, but time was too
short for a bicolor Giori
press printing.
A trial was made of blue
on a yellow paper like that
used for the Kansas stamp.
1t wasn't satisfactory and the
Navy stamp is being printed
in blue on the usual white
paper.
The color problem also
helps explain why the COM
memorative is a Accent stamp
rather than an air mail de-
nomination such as has been
used for similar occasions in
the past. Seven-cent domes-
tic air mail stamps are now
being printed only in fire
red" hardly a suitable color
for a Navy commemoration.
The design is based on a
sketch by John Mass of
Philadelphia, an artist mem
Der of the Stamp Advisory
Committee. He will not be
paid for it, however, as artist
members of Postmaster Cen
eral Summerfield's committee
were paid for similar work.

Both sets were designed by
