Piper, designer of the popular Piper Cub plane.  He was called the “Henry Ford” of aviation for developing and promoting low-cost aircraft.   

The 50¢ Antarctic Treaty stamp commemorates the treaty’s 30th anniversary.  This treaty, which went into effect on June 23, 1961, demilitarized the continent of Antarctica and preserved it for scientific research.
