This 5¢ stamp from Liberia, issued on May 4, 1956, commemorates the first direct flight between Roberts Field (Liberia) and New York’s Idlewild Airport (now JFK). The design features an outline of a plane with the Idlewild terminal building in the background, symbolizing a historic milestone in transatlantic aviation. Printed by E. A. Wright Bank Note Co., Philadelphia, this issue reflects Liberia’s strong ties with the United States during the mid-20th century. A significant airmail commemorative, it is prized among collectors of aviation and African philately.
