Description

Phenomenal signatures from 1909, the height of their flying fame

Exceptionally bold vintage ink signatures, “Wilbur Wright” and “Orville Wright, Feb. 13th, 1909,” on an off-white 3.75 x 4.5 album page. Attractively double-cloth-matted and framed with photos of the brothers and their plane to an overall size of 14.5 x 16.5. In fine condition. At the time of signing, the Wrights were in Pau, France, conducting training flights with three French aviators: Charles de Lambert, Paul Tissandier, and Captain Paul N. Lucas-Girardville. Items signed by both brothers are very rare and this example bears two of the finest Wright signatures we have encountered. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
