Item description:
here is a rare usage of an early high value german  issue on a 'zeppelin' cover, sc. #339. it is a nice corner copy with numeral. as for the cover, it is a jumbo cover flown to the 'sudetenland' on the 'graf zeppelin II' dec. 2, 1938, with special cancellations. happy bidding.

a little history on this flight from wikipedia:

'Flight 8 - Sudetenlandfahrt

This flight, also known as the Sudetenduetsch Freiheitsfahrt 1938, was made at the behest of the Reich Ministry for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda (Reichsministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda or Propagandaministerium. After the popular vote resulted in a large majority for Hitler and the NSDAP many propaganda channels were used - including a Zeppelin flight over the befreiten Gebiete (liberated regions). On board were 62 crew members and 7 passengers, among them military officers. The launch occurred on 2 December 1938 shortly after 10 o'clock. Over Reichenberg (present-day Liberec), capital of Sudetenland, over which LZ 130 floated exactly at Hitler's visit, were thrown out small parachutes with swastika flags and handbills with the text "Dein JA dem Führer!" ("Your YES for the leader"). LZ 130's loudspeakers played music and National Socialist propaganda for the forthcoming December 4 elections. Afterwards LZ 130 flew to the Reichenberg airfield and dropped 663 kg of postally cacheted souvenir mails (see image above). Worsening weather hindered further flight, therefore after some time it was decided to turn back. After the ship left the Sudetenland, it came into low cloud and snow showers. It started to ice up. Later, the propellers blew broken-off ice shards through the ship's outer envelope. However, the crew immediately repaired the damage. At 17:46 the Zeppelin landed without problem in gusty winds and was brought into the airship hangar.[1].'
