Croatan 117 S73?

Croatan has issued an unusually large number (for them) of flaps lately.     Earlier this Spring they issued a set of “Pirate Nation” flaps.   These are being sold to support the 2010 National Jamboree contingent.   Thanks to Wesley Drennan and Greg Grimes for images of these issues.

Each of these features the East Carolina University pirate in front of what appears to be a football stadium.   Note the inclusion of the registered trademark symbol, ®, on the pirate’s hat.     Three flaps were issued:   a black (BLK) border (S72?), purple (PUR) border (S73?), and a gold mylar (GMY) border version (S74?).       I expect these will be a hit with traders, especially those who like pirates or collect sports related OA issues.

Listing data for these flaps are as follows:

Issue Bdr Color/Type Bkgd Name fdl/BSA Comments
S72? BLK R M/C BLK YEL fdl; Pirate Nation
S73? PUR R M/C BLK YEL fdl; Pirate Nation
S74? GMY R M/C BLK YEL fdl; Pirate Nation
