This 25¢ red airmail stamp of Liberia, issued on May 4, 1956, commemorates the first direct flight from Roberts Field, Liberia to Idlewild Airport (New York). The design features Idlewild Airport (later renamed John F. Kennedy International Airport) with a silhouette of an airplane in the foreground, symbolizing the milestone in transatlantic aviation for Liberia. Printed by E.A. Wright Bank Note Company, Philadelphia, it represents Liberia’s growing connection to international air travel during the mid-20th century. A highly desirable issue for collectors of aviation history, Liberian postal history, and first flight commemoratives.
