When a vehicle transporting postal material 'crashes', often a plane or airship, the mail must be salvaged by law, and the remnants delivered, if possible, to the rightful receipient.
Here is my "Crash Cover":
It was delivered to my grandfather.
A humble piece of 'junk mail', turned into a prized collectible.
National Airlines Flight #193: May 8th, 1978, crashed into Escambia Bay, Pensacola, Florida.
3 fatalities, and several injuries.
It always struck me as ironic that this cover was not franked for air mail, but was in a plane crash.
