X-2 Collectibles and Stuff

Bell X-2 Flown Postal Covers

Dennis Dillman, a stamp collector and rocketplane oficionado, has shared the following postal covers, all flown on X-2 flights. A "cover" is an envelope with a stamp, postmarked for an event. Dennis has collected other covers related to the XF-91, X-15 and lifting bodies. His collection, including the X-2 covers can be viewed in an online philatelic exhibit at Stamps.org.

A big thank you to Dennis for sharing these with us!
