Help with identification??

Hello Forum,

This is my first post and I am hoping that someone can educate me on these two, I guess they are called covers? They were left to me and I am trying to learn about them and if they have any value. The value question is secondary to me as I think the research is more enjoyable.

Under my Uncacheted First Day Covers it lists what you have there 1 of 2 things:

1)C10 10c Lindbergh

2)C7 10c Map

My book is too old to give a price. I Hope someone else can give you a hand. Be patient. Someone will stop by and know.

PURPLE!

Looks like C7, the 10c Map from '26. If they are FDC's, not a bad find. 2005 Scott US Spec has 5 values listed. $60 is the generic listing, and values of $75 each from Chicago or Detroit, or $140 each from either Cleveland or Dearborn (Michigan). Presumably, those are rarer FDC cancellations, or special flight events for the first day. BTW, FDC date is Feb 13, 1926.
Maybe someone knows more???
