Description
Collection of aircraft fabric fragment relics on print marketed in the 1970/80's by the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum.

These pieces were part of the Smithsonian's "Aviation Relic Series" which featured a print image of the aircraft and an attached 2" x 2" pieces of fabric from the specific aircraft. This collection includes; 1.) The "Douglas World Cruiser # 2 "Chicago"" the aircraft that made the first around the world flight in 1924. 2.) A pair of "Fokker T-2" that made the first non-stop US coast to coast flight in 1923. 3.) The "Curtiss NC-4" a flying "boat" that made the first transatlantic flight in 1919. and 4.) The "Lockheed Vega 5B" that in 1932 Amelia Earhart became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic. Prints measure 20" x 15" and are rolled in mailing tube. Because of degradation of adhesive the fabric pieces have become detached from the prints.
