Description: WWII Collectors! You are bidding on the 43rd cover of a set of 100 first day covers containing stamps issued in the Marshall Islands commemorating the 50th anniversaries of the 100 most significant events starting with the invasion of Poland and ending up with the end of World War II on VJ day, September 2, 1945. This 43rd cover depicts the 50th Anniversary of the Battle of Midway on June 4, 1942. This battle was fought on and near Midway atoll and represented the height of Japan’s Pacific Ocean war. Admiral Yamamoto, mastermind of the Pearl Harbor attack, suggested an assault on Midway. Before this, Japan possessed naval superiority over the US. After Midway, they were equals. The cover is dual cancelled and the red cancellation is from Majuro proper on June 4, 1992, 50 years after the battle. The cover bears four different 50 cent Battle of Midway 1942 stamps. The creator of the cover is also a member of the American Philatelic Society. This is a beautiful and unique cover to own and one of a limited edition.
