Description
Grouping of 11 Captain John Miller aeronautical posters, circa 1930. Includes 8 barnstorming posters showing Miller standing next to his aircraft - each 11" x 14", and 3 small arrow directional posters for Miller's autogiro. One of the arrow posters is with small loss and one with stains, otherwise they are all unused and in very good condition. The following information regarding Capt. Miller, courtesy of Wikipedia: "John MacDonald Miller (15 December 1905, Poughkeepsie, New York State − 23 June 2008, Poughkeepsie) was a barnstorming pilot, the first person to make a US transcontinental flight in a rotorcraft (autogiro), the first to land a rotorcraft on the roof of a building, and the first to fly a scheduled US mail rotorcraft service. He was also a US Marine test pilot and an airline captain. He became the oldest active pilot in the US, making his first flight on his 18th birthday and ending at the age of 101. He died aged 102.". Provenance: A stack of these unused posters were found in Capt. Miller's garage, in Poughkeepsie NY - this is the last of the batch and the last chance for all to own a piece of aeronautical history.
