    Description

    American Airlines continued
    to add to its Boeing 707 services with Dallas receiving northbound flights. Dallas covers were
    backstamped at the Newark Airport, due to emergency landing preparations at New York’s Idlewild
    Airport.
    This cover was
    carried on the inaugural Boeing 707 flight from Dallas, Texas to Newark, New Jersey (where it was backstamped) and is listed in the Jet Age Flights Section of The American Air Mail Catalogue as J-121.
