A New Spin on Honeymooning: The Extraordinary Adventure of Early Aviation Lovebirds, c. 1910 In this whimsical and charming photograph from the early 1910s, a newlywed couple embarks on their honeymoon journey with an unexpected twist. Instead of the traditional horse-drawn carriage or steamship, they choose to fly off into the sunset aboard a rudimentary airplane. The moon, with a mischievous and approving grin, looks down upon the amusing scene. The couple, dressed in their Sunday best, exudes an infectious sense of excitement and joy. The wife, with a demure smile and a graceful wave, holds onto her hat as she clings to her husband. The husband, with a confident and proud expression, assists his wife in boarding their unusual mode of transportation. Their luggage, which includes a large trunk and a small suitcase, is carefully stowed away in the plane's limited cargo area. The plane, a marvel of early aviation technology, appears to be a simple biplane with fabric wings and a wooden frame. The couple's faces are reflected in the plane's curved windshield, adding a sense of intimacy and connection to the image. This postcard, which bears the caption "Newly-weds fly off on their honeymoon, the moon smiling down at them," is a delightful reminder of the power of love and the allure of adventure. It also showcases the spirit of innovation and progress that defined the early 1910s, a time when the impossible became possible, and dreams could take flight.
