US aerograms to disappear

Linn's Stamp News reports that the United States Postal Service will no longer issue aerograms when the supply on hand is gone.

David Failor, executive director of stamps services for the Postal Service is quoted as saying, "Demand for these has been next to nothing for the past five years."

Shown above is a commercially produced aerogram from the Roland Austin Collection. Such areograms are highly unusual and hard to find.
