This stamp was issued in conjunction with the International Civil Aeronautics Conference held at Washington, D.C. The design shows the aircraft used by the Wright Brothers in the first successful flight of heavier than air, powered aircraft. The 1903 flight lasted exactly 12 seconds and covered a distance of 120 feet. The stamp commemorates the 25th anniversary of this first manned flight. Because the Civil Aeronautics stamps pictured airplanes, postmasters often confused them for airmail stamps, marking countless letters “postage due.
The International Civil Aeronautics Conference stamps were voted #93 in the 100 Greatest American Stamps book.
