Only 200 copies of this overprint were issued for the experimental flight from Barranquilla to Puerto Colombia. Approximately 160 were used on covers. Overprinting was done in horiz. strips of 10, which were severed by knife, causing most of the stamps to be defective. Cat. value for a faulty copy,
