Unusual fountain pen signature by aviator Charles Lindbergh, "Charles A. Lindbergh, C. A. Lindbergh, Jr.,” on an off-white 7.5 x 4 stationery envelope for 598 Madison Avenue, New York City. Affixed to a slightly larger card and in fine condition. Accompanied by a somewhat erroneous small note in an unknown hand: "The upper signature is Col. Lindbergh's normal signature. The lower one is a copy of his father's signature, which he himself uses in signing checks." Lindbergh discontinued the frequent use of the "Jr." version of his signature shortly after his father's death in 1924; rather than being a copy of his father's signature, this is simply an example of two different versions of the aviator's own signature used during different points in his life.
