Baghdad, Abas Ibn Firnas

Baghdad, Abas Ibn Firnas

To save you some time, here is what Wikipedia says:  “Abbas Ibn Firnas (810 – 887 A.D.), also known as Abbas Qasim Ibn Firnas and العباس بن فرناس (Arabic language), was an Arabic-speaking Berber polymath,[1][2] born in Izn-Rand Onda, al-Andalus (today’s Ronda, Spain), who lived in the Caliphate of Córdoba.”  Apparently he also glued feathers to himself and tried to fly.  We admire that initiative.  This unused card is captioned in Arabic and English and was produced, we think, in 1988.  Grade: 2
