Austrian Ganzsache / postal stationery card upfranked to be used as a catapult cover from Vienna, Austria to New York via airplane and the Dampfer / Steamer Bremen.

Austrian covers were flown on this flight. This one was to a passenger who is marked "D. Bremen not on board" and "Zurueck" / "Return". Reverse has stamps "Nicht Besatzg" and "Nicht 3. Klasse" from August 6 and 7 -- variations of "not here". With both the black Bremen-New York cachet, an the purple Mit Luftpost cachet as well (2x premium) -- EUR2000+++
