Description

Tiny flown fragment attributed to Charles Lindbergh's famous transatlantic airplane, the Spirit of St. Louis, attractively matted with two images and a plaque to an overall size of 20 x 16. The plaque reads: "The Spirit of St. Louis is the airplane that was used by Charles Lindbergh to make the first Trans-Atlantic flight. Although designed for its successful New York to Paris flight and built in San Diego, it was named after St. Louis because of financial backing from that city. This is an original piece of the skin from the Spirit of St. Louis." In fine condition.
