Vintage menu for a dinner organized by the Aero Club of France in honor of Wilbur Wright, held in the Automobile Club de France in Paris on November 5, 1908, measuring 8.5 x 11.75, signed on the reverse of the upper half in pencil, "November 5, 1908, Wilbur Wright." Lower portion of menu reads (translated): "After dinner,
an hour of cinematography: The Stages of Aviation in France (Films of the Gaumont, Pathe and Eclipse houses)." The menu itself has a heavy vertical fold, and has completely separated across its horizontal fold, however the 'panel' that Wright has signed is fine and quite clean, with only some thin creases and light old adhesive residue just touching the final letter of the signature.
