I snagged this tag this afternoon with great delight:
The special nature which appeals to me that this is a pristine example of airmail parcel post. The postage rate is dependent on distance traveled and in this case from Fresno CA to Hartford CT, a distance exceeding 1800 miles. This puts it in the Zone 8 category, in the time period January 7,1963 to January 7 1968. Postage for the first pound weight was 88-cents, and an additional 80 cents for the next.
Total postage on this is $1.68 a perfect franking for a parcel over 1 pound, to 2 pounds. To date, my only airmail parcel post example with the 8c airmail.

The irony you got that the day after they evacuate the capital from the Golden Knights plane in the air space. Cool collection!
