August Euler (1868-1957) was an important pioneer German aviator, aircraft constructor and holder of the first German Pilot's license, issued in 1909. After WWI he became German Secretary of State for Air, but retired in 1922 due to the restrictions resulting from ratification of the Treaty of Versailles. With the outbreak of WWII his services were requested by the Nazi government but he resisted due to his age and remained in retirement. With personal stamp on front wrapper. EXTREMELY SCARCE.
