EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in aviation history, showcasing a group of three stereograph views from the years 1900 to 1929. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the Wright Brothers, pioneers of flight and inventors of the world's first successful airplane. Their groundbreaking achievements forever changed the course of transportation. One particular scene depicted in this print takes us back to July 2,1929, when an extraordinary air-rail trip commenced from New York to Los Angeles. All aboard! A giant passenger plane stands proudly at Columbus, Ohio, ready for its transcontinental journey across America. This historic event marked a major milestone in air transport as it combined two modes of travel - air and rail - offering passengers an unprecedented experience. The black and white albumen silver prints add a timeless charm to these images, capturing every detail with precision. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this remarkable piece that showcases not only technological progress but also represents American ingenuity and ambition during the early 20th century. As we admire this photograph by Keystone View Company, we are reminded of how far aviation has come since those pioneering days. It serves as a testament to human innovation and our unyielding desire to conquer new frontiers in transportation.
