Peterson from his years living near Scranton ND service in the Army from 1921-1924 including training at Kelly Field TX and Chanute Field IL who later begins work for oil companies in Texas from the 1930s through his death in Lubbock TX.
Kelly Field TX; Chanute Field IL; Scranton ND; Denver City TX: Almond Orwald Peterson 1917-1956. Two vols. Oblong folio. 1st. 13.25 x 10.25 in.; 12.25 x 10 in. 80; 80 pp unpaginated both with thick black paper stock with 359 tipped-in photos ranging in size from 1.75 x 2 in. up to 8 x 10 in many of them clearly marked in pencil and/or ink on versos some with signatures in lower white margin a images nearly all on glossy photo stock a couple hand-coloured many with minor creasing some damage to corners a couple with tears along the upper fore-edge still nearly all of the images are still quite clear and distinct; 4 leaf typescript on onion paper 24.5 x 36 in. blueprint folded for radio receiving station; 6 different course certifications for Peterson in handling oil field and natural gas pumping equipment. First album is contemporary ribbed cloth post-binder tied at gutter margin with black silk cord some bumping wear bumping to corners fraying; second padded leather album rounded corners gilt lettering front cover slots in leaves for postcards minor bumping head & foot of spine edgewear; still VG- set. These remarkable photo albums furnish an indispensable visual record of the history of American aviation just after World War I at Kelly Field TX and Chanute Field IL. Almond Orwald Peterson 1901-1977 son of Norwegian immigrants was born in Twin Valley MN moved with his family later to Billings and Scranton ND enlisted in the Army after High School trained as a radio operator and airplane mechanic worked as a mechanic after his service in North Dakota and then Texas and finally worked in the oil fields surrounding Denver City TX. Kelly Field in Texas was one of the Army Air Service’s primary fields for training and deploying pilots during World War I. After the massive demobilization at the end of the War the Kelly Field and Chanute Field in Illinois served as essential training grounds for Army pilots to exhibit their skills holding air races balloon races and training technicians. All technical schools were joined with the mechanics school at Chanute Field in 1922 and were re-designated the Air Corps Technical School by 1924. These excellent photographs not only include detailed shots of the barracks the radio towers the equipment rooms servicemen and more but also encompass a vast array of the aircraft which flew in and out of these fields along with many aerial shots. There are photos of German Fokker triplanes French Spads Curtiss DH-4s many of the Barling Bomber the Witteman-Lewis XNBL-1 an experimental long-range three-wing strategic bomber which proved massively unwieldy because it was too underpowered with its six engines a colour-tinted image of the USS Los Angeles Zeppelin and several other lighter-than-air balloons and airships as well. In addition there are many photographs of plane crashes showing the high attrition and danger of flying during the 1920s often in World War I surplus aircraft and even a few images of funerals and caskets for lost comrades.

AVIATION PHOTO ALBUM CZECHOSLOVAKIA. KUCERA S..
Jubilee album. 25th anniversary of aircraft production in the Moravan National Company In Czech Jubilejni album. 25. vyroci letecke vyroby v n.p. Moravan. Deluxe presentation photo album catalogue with 185 real photographs of the 25 year history of the company’s production of gliders racing aircraft and trainers which was recently renamed again the Zlin Aircraft Company.
Otrokovice: S. Kucera n.p. Moravan 1958. Oblong elephant folio. 19.5 x 14.25 x 2.25 in. 49 leaves of thick dark gray paper stock each leaf retaining original tissue guards. Title page & colophon in white ink calligraphy. 185 tipped-in real photos 46 leaves with tipped-in printed histories & descriptions matched to the tipped-in photos. Embossed & stitched padded leather post binding brown silk braid at gutter margin elaborate gilt embossed illustration & logo on front cover of Moravian Airplane w/ laurel leaf cluster around 25 LET slight shelfwear a fine copy. This spectacular and exceptionally large Soviet-era photo album offers an invaluable visual record of the 25 year history of the central European Zlin/Moravan Aviation Company. This amazing production is beautifully done and all of the photographs are quite crisp. The first 6 leaves illustrated with photos and text detail the history of the company from its formation in 1933 as the Zlin Aviation Company which was commissioned to build gliders by the Masaryk Air League since the major shareholder the Bata Company was not allowed by the Ministry in charge of aircraft production to produce powered aircraft. These early gliders were designed by the Czech aeronautical engineer Kryspin and included the Kluzak Zlin I Vetron Zlin II the Kluzak Zlin III designed by R. Dohnalek and then several designed by F.O. Mayer including the Kluzak - Zlin V VI the very popular Vetron Zlin VII -- Akela which was used throughout Europe as a racing glider and others. Zlin Aviation began producing powered aircraft finally in late 1934 and 1935 with prototypes of the Zlin Z-XII sport and two-seater trainer monoplane. The Z-XII trainer designed by Jaroslav Lonek became the most popular aircraft of its kind in Czechoslovakia and Germany during the 1930s eventually producing over 200 of them powered by Walter Mikron engines illustrated here in the catalogue and later with Persy I and Persy II engines. One of the images included shows the Z-XII at the 1938 races where the plane finished 29th. After World War II the aircraft were used by the Czech Army and as courier planes and were called the K-72 -- replicas of these are being built to this day. Just before the Nazis took over Czechoslovakia in 1938 the company experimented with producing a racing plane called the Letoun Zlin 13 but only 1 was built. After the Germans took over and renamed the company Zlin Aviation Enterprise they built 1 Letoun Zlin-20 which was to be a small two-engine passenger plane but it was quickly superseded by the need to produce the Bu 181 for the Luftwaffe which was the Z-181 Z-281 -- a two seat primary trainer which continued to be built for air forces around the world after World War II. They also produced a variety of gliders for the Luftwaffe and private individuals during the War. After the war the company was nationalized by the Communist Government and became part of the Automotive Enterprise and later renamed Zlinavion. In 1953 it was again renamed Moravan Company and began producing the very successful trainers and aerobatic planes used in aerobatic competition around the world. The Letoun Z-226 Trainer followed by the Z-326 which in this catalogue is still a prototype resulted in numerous different models and over 800 aircraft eventually built by the company and sold around the world. In addition the final leaf shows the Moravan Vrtulnik HC 2 a small 2-seater helicopter which also proved popular for the company. S. Kucera, n.p. Moravan, hardcover
