To tell you the truth, I'm not much into obvious "Philatelic" looking covers often seen in Lithuanian trans-Atlantic airmails or covers using stamps with limited validity. But I found this cover nice because it uses a complete set of stamps. This is a registered express airmail cover sent in 1922 from Memel (now Klaipėda, Lithuania) to Berlin, Germany. It is franked with all 10 of the third and last issue of Memel air post stamp. According to Michel, this complete set has a catalog value of 80 Euros total in used condition. The back has an arrival cancellation of Berlin with a round white piece of paper, probably protecting the cover being damaged from some kind of seal when opening it.
