EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph from 1917, Col. Charles E. Lee, a British aviator, takes center stage at the Polo Grounds in New York City for an awe-inspiring demonstration of Allied aircraft. The event marked a significant moment in the First World War's aviation history, as the Allied forces showcased their advanced capabilities in air transport and flight. Col. Lee stands proudly beside an Avro training plane, designed by A.V. Roe of England, which was a leading aviation company at the time. The Avro biplane, with its sleek design and powerful engine, represented the pinnacle of aviation technology during the early 1900s. The aviator wears a stylish leather flying helmet and goggles, along with a leather flying jacket and trousers, reflecting the fashionable yet practical apparel of the era's aviators. The photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, captures the essence of the industrial revolution in aviation. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a leading provider of photographic services during the 20th century. The image, reminiscent of the era's glass negatives, showcases the determination and innovation of the Allied forces in the face of war. The Polo Grounds demonstration served as a testament to the progress made in aviation technology and the crucial role it played in the First World War. This photograph is an invaluable piece of history, offering a glimpse into the past and the significant advancements that shaped the future of air travel and military aviation.
