I am revamping my exhibit on Lloyd's of London for NTSS in Sacramento and in need of a philatelic item to go with this statement:
1965. Lloyd's issued the first policy covering a spacecraft. Underwriters insured the Intelsat 1, the first commercial communication satellite. The policy insured the satellite for physical damage.
On eBay, I found this First Day Cover that would work but I am uncomfortable trusting the mails to deliver something in time. So, if I can find a domestic source, that would be far better. So, I decided to write a quick note to see if the collectSPACE members might have the item — or something better!

Here's hoping...!
