CPO Club, 1080 Ault Field Rd, Oak Harbor —
Monthly no-host luncheon. The featured speakers are local Coupeville authors Kellen Diamanti and Deborah Fisher. They tell the story of Major Reuben Fleet, the officer-in- charge of launching the first scheduled government airmail flights in May 1918. The famous 24-cent stamp with the Curtiss Jenny on it was issued in commemoration of these airmail flights. The authors’/speakers’ book recounts the development of airmail and tells the many stories of the stamp owners over the last 100 years of the stamp’s famous error, the “Inverted Jenny.” The book is titled “Stamp of the Century: Inverted Jenny.” (After completing his assignment to launch airmail, Fleet leftthe military and went on to form the Consolidated Aircraft Company, which developed the PBY.) The public is invited to this event. Call 360-240-9500 for directions and more information.
