[AVIATION] [GLENN CURTISS] [AERIAL EXPERIMENT ASSOCIATION]
A Collection of sixty-eight original photographs depicting early aviation Glenn Curtiss Alexander Graham Bell and the Aerial Experiment Association. Numbered in pencil on verso and nearly all with typed detailed captions on slips. These photographs aappear to be contact prints from negatives of newsworthy achievements in aviation and intended for publication. With: a typed letter signed on Curtiss Aeroplane & Motor Corporation letterhead from the Education and Sales Promotion Manager enclosing "two photographs of aviation pioneer Katherine Stinson and her Curtiss machine" 1919 which appear not to be present in this collection.
Hammondsport New York and Newport News Virginia 1915-1917. The captions were formerly attached to the photographs with paperclips with some crimping to the photographs and captions. Some marginal damage to a couple of the photographs; images unaffected and quite interesting. . Various sizes; 14 measure 8 / 10 inches; 54 are 4 x 6 inches. . Many of the captions are quite informative if a bit illiterate for example: "Capt. Baldwin in the first Derigable sic were built for the U.S. Gov. Capt. Baldwin built his machine and was accepted by U.S. Gov. on all trials. Capt. Baldwin--inventor of a Parachute and first man to ever jump. built at Hammondsport." In addition to the the 68 photographs that clearly belong to a single archive there are two additional 8 x 10" Curtiss photographs and 15 additional smaller early aviation photographs. unknown

[Aviation] [Sydney Harbour]
A collection of fifteen vintage oblique aerial photographs of Sydney Harbour taken during the Second World War
Fifteen gelatin silver prints one 127 × 129 mm all others 134 × 139 mm slightly curled around the vertical axis; in uniformly fine condition Numbers pencilled on the verso of all but the small print include '/43' so we will suggest 1943 as the date. The only caption is a later one in ballpoint pen identifying Darling Harbour; there are another two featuring the same general area. Eight feature Garden Island prominently in all but one instance and four focus on Cockatoo Island; the former was a major naval base and the latter the main ship repair facility during the Second World War. Although the photographs are not credited given the nature of the images and the fact they were taken during wartime they were presumably taken with authorisation. Offered with the photographs is 'Sydney an Aerial Close-up' by Walter Brooks with photography by Neil Sutherland 1986; those familiar with Sydney in 2024 may derive some pleasure in drawing two comparisons . 16 items. unknown

[Aviation] [Western Front]
A collection of ten aerial photographs taken during the First World War
Very Good. All are gelatin silver prints on thick stock; eight are oblique photographs 207 × 154 mm; two are vertical views approximately 165 × 220 mm; the larger ones are slightly creased at the corners one of them a little more so; the others are in excellent condition. All images are captioned in the negative. All eight oblique views carry the same date 25 June 1918 preceded by 'A3 AEO 62°' ranges from 110 to 121. Place names on them are Hamel Hamel Wood Somme Accroche Wood Tailloux Wood and Vaire Wood. The vertical images are dated 3 May and 27 June 1918 and carry a larger set of alpha-numeric references commencing 'A3 AE A 715' and '35 AE B 929' respectively. All ten prints have the signature 'Capt Sexton' in indelible pencil on the verso. Digitised service records indicate the signature is that of Eric James Sexton of the Adelaide suburb of Hindmarsh; he enlisted on 14 August 1914 shortly before his 21st birthday and was appointed to the 10th Battalion with the rank of lieutenant. He was wounded at the landing at Gallipoli promoted to captain the following day and later invalided back to Australia disembarking on 6 August 1915. By January 1916 he was declared fit again for active service and re-embarked in April for England where he performed various training roles. On 14 February 1917 he transferred to the Australian Machine Gun Training Depot with the rank of major. He embarked for Australia on 12 March 1918 arriving in Melbourne on 22 May 1918. Accordingly Sexton did not serve in France and was a major not a captain by the time these photographs were produced. We cannot explain the anomalies but will let the photographs speak for themselves. Significantly they show the area where the important Battle of Hamel was fought on 4 July 1918. <p>'Hamel was a big battle in miniature involving the experimentation of tanks and small ammunition drops as part of a broader all-arms offensive. While a coordinated offensive was not a new approach to warfare Hamel represented the culmination of three years of learning and innovation on the Western Front testing an all-inclusive approach to mobile warfare. The flawless execution of the operation resulted in Hamel becoming a model for future operations on the Western Front. In his account of the event Monash famously wrote that "the perfected modern battle plan is like nothing so much as a score for an orchestral composition where the various arms and units are the instruments and the tasks they perform are their respective musical phrases' Ellen Cresswell: 'The Experiment - Innovations at the Battle of Hamel' Australian War Memorial website. 10 items. unknown

[Aviation] [Australian Flying Corps]
A vintage photograph of three biplanes from the training wing of the AFC in the air but probably based at Leighterton Aerodrome in England during the First World War
Very Good. A gelatin silver print 216 × 166 mm lightly creased at the corner-tips; in excellent condition. The aircraft appear to be a Sopwith Camel and two Avro 504s specific models not determined. Offered with two other photographs of a biplane possibly a Sopwith Camel in the air: one is silhouetted above billowing sunlit clouds 147 × 199 mm printed without margins; the other is shown flying between clouds above hedgerows and fields 216 × 166 mm. We purchased these photographs with a small group of aerial photographs of Leighterton Aerodrome. <p>'By 1917 the Australian Flying Corps AFC consisted of four operational squadrons which outstripped the ability of the Army's Central Flying School at Point Cook to supply sufficient trained airmen. It was decided therefore to establish training squadrons within the AFC. Four such squadrons were subsequently established in the United Kingdom during 1917. 8 Squadron AFC was formed at Wendover on 24 October 1917. It was originally identified as 33 Australian Training Squadron Royal Flying Corps but was renamed along with all of the Australian squadrons in January 1918. The squadron relocated to Cirencester on 9 January 1918 and thence to Leighterton where it remained until disbanded in April 1919. The squadron's principal role was to prepare personnel for service with what was at first 71 Australian Squadron RFC and subsequently 4 Squadron AFC which was operating with British forces over the Western Front' Australian War Memorial website. 3 items. unknown

Quarter-brown cloth over brown boards printed label on front cover minor shelfwear slight rubbing still NF copy from the library of Otto C. Winzen 1917-1979 pioneering German-American aeronautical engineer was interned during World War II and later significantly advanced material and construction of high-altitude balloons after World War II. First facsimile edition 1 of 95 copies printed of this curious treatise detailing how Pocock achieved nearly 20 miles per hour while driving his Charvolant a kite-hauling carriage from Bristol to Marlborough in 1827. Pocock was an aviation pioneer who conducted experiments on the use of kites how to lift draw and move items by using kites and finally capped it with his huge kites drawing the Charvolant. One of Pocock’s giant kites still exists in the Museum of Bristol a BBC team recreated and flew the kite successfully in 2009 and in 2009 Takeshi Sugimoto of Kanagawa University determined that as long as the carriage was not exposed to the wind and kites were aloft they did produce sufficient lift to offer steady driving speeds for the carriage.

An album of 119 photographs of British aircraft of the Second World War chiefly various models of the Vickers Wellington and Vickers Warwick bombers including many rare and unique prototypes
Many of the photographs appear to have been taken at Vickers' Brooklands factory near Weybridge Surrey the famous banked race track is visible in many images and possibly also at the nearby Royal Aircraft Establishment Farnborough Hampshire. Nearly all are dated ranging from 1937 to 1946. The gelatin silver prints have been cropped to highlight the stationary aircraft; the resulting photographs are in a visually appealing panoramic format with most of them between 55 and 75 mm high some smaller some larger and approximately 190 mm wide. They are loosely mounted from three to five per page under clear celluloid sheets in a later commercial photograph album. The album is neither here nor there; apart from a crease near a short edge of one print the photographs are in excellent condition. Approximately 35 different aircraft are shown each represented by between two and five photographs taken from different angles. The verso of each print carries the inkstamp of the RTP Research and Technical Publications Photographic Section of variously the Air Ministry Ministry of Aircraft Production or Ministry of Supply. These stamps restricting reproduction are completed in manuscript with a reference number and date; at least one image is also stamped 'Secret'. <p>The aircraft shown are: Vickers Wellesley Production; Armstrong Whitworth Whitley; Vickers B1/35 1939 1940 and 1941 models - these are prototypes for the Warwick; Vickers Wellington Mk II with and without experimental turret Mk III Mk IV Mk V Mk VIII an unidentified model with an experimental turret Mk X Mk XI Mk XII Gr Mk IV Mk XVI Mk XVII Mk XVIII and T Mk X; Vickers Warwick Mk I Mk I freighter Mk II ASR Mk I ASR Mk I Tropical C Mk I C Mk III Gr Mk II and Gr Mk V; De Havilland Vampire Mk I Mk II Prototype; Westland Welkin Prototype F Mk I F Mk 2; and Vultee Vengeance Mk I. unknown

Very good. 191 photographs various sizes but most approximately 3 x 4 inches; fifteen leaves of manuscript or typed notes and letters some illustrated; plus various assorted clippings and ephemera. Most photographs affixed to annotated sheets. Light soiling and wear throughout but generally clean. Archive of model airplane enthusiast William C. Grove Jr. Grove 1932-2013 graduated from the University of Wyoming with a degree in engineering and went on to a career at Lockheed as a design engineer. The present scrapbook shows his early enthusiasm for planes and aviation participating with the Cheyenne Hillhoppers in contests and events. Most of the photographs depict model planes or the club members engaged with their aircraft. Grove's notes show sketches of model planes as well as his notes on building and flying. A Western Union telegram from 1959 announces his big win at Plymouth Motor Corp's Third International Model Plane Contest indicating a first place win "in the control line stunt events. Placing in this single event assures Grove of a handsome trophy and a share in the $8750 in U.S. Savings Bonds which will be awarded the winners in this greatest of model aviation contests."

Publisher's pebbled cloth with gilt spine and cover lettering sprayed page edges in illustrated jacket. Spine mottled and faded else very good in jacket which is lacking about 2/3 of the rear panel. <br /> <br /> First book from the American aviator journalist and war correspondent Harrison Forman 1904-1978. The book is quite detailed and somewhat technical in its language though in his preface Forman states:<br /> <br /> "It is not the purpose of the author to attempt a technical and exhaustive survey of the field of aviation in the confining limits of the following few chapters. They are designed rather to direct a special appeal to the layman in the aviation world."<br /> <br /> <br /> The text largely centers around Forman's early explorations in China where he sold aircraft to the government and trained pilots. A fascinating and scarce book on aviation with an interesting Shanghai imprint.  <br /> <br /> <br /> .
