SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, New York, February 13, 1875.   * Early aviation... Strange looking flying machine... * Almost 30 years before Wright Brothers... * Images of the NY City Underground Railway... An inside page has a 4 by 5 illustration of Blackford's Flying Machine. The companion report headed A New Form of Flying Machine, written by Mr. Blackford, begins with his solution to successful flight: "Screw propulsion is the principle upon which will, probably, be accomplished the great problem of aerial flight. The plan here proposed is a modification of the device presented...in a recent issue....The horizontal driving shaft is attached below the spar, above which the wing propellers revolve in opposite directions. This shaft is rotated by means of cranks actuated by the machinery below, and is connected with the wings by means of bevel gearing. Many more details about the mechanics of this flying machine and its potential to fly. The report concludes with an interesting observation about the benefits of flight, mentioning that: The time may yet come when...nations will be brought into such easy, rapid, frequent, and intimate commercial and social connection as to result in a grand unity in language, law, and government on earth." The issue also contains images (see photos) of the NY City Underground Railway at "125th Street - The Harlem Open Cut and Cross Street Bridges". Other illustrations with text throughout this 16 page issue. The issue is complete and is in very good condition, with only a small amount of typical foxing for the period.

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, New York, Feb. 22, 1902  Almost never have we seen any national attention given to the Wright brothers before their historic flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina in December of 1903. Indeed, half of the newspapers we have had from that historic month never reported the flight that changed the world. Here is a rare article titled "Some Aeronautical Experiments" in this respected national science periodical which begins: "Mr. Wilbur Wright, of Dayton, Ohio, recently read a most interesting paper before the Western Society of Engineers, entitled 'Some Aeronautical Experiments', and the paper was afterward published in the Journal of the Society...we are enabled to present a series of engravings illustrating the article. Mr. Wright's attention was drawn to the study of aeronautical problems a number of years ago..." with much more (see photos). Equally as intriguing is that this article contains 5 photos of the Wright brothers' early flying machines. A very rare opportunity for a nice items on the Wright brothers before their names would be marked in history forever. This is the complete in 16 pages, a few minor binding slits at the blank spine margin, otherwise in excellent condition.

SPRINGFIELD DAILY REPUBLICAN, Massachusetts, December 19, 1903  * Wright Brothers fly at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina  * 1st airplane flight (historic)  It would be difficult to argue a more noteworthy event in the 20th century which changed the world more than manned flight. It all began at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina when Orville & Wilbur Wright first flew in December, 1903. My guess is about half of the newspapers of the day did not report the event, but here is one that did. Page 6 has a report which is lengthier than most, and with a nice heading: "A Successful Flying Machine" "Trial By Two Ohio Men" "Trip of Three Miles in Face of Wind Near Kitty Hawk, N.C." with the various details noted (see photo for the complete report).  You get the complete 16 page newspaper, bit irregular at the spine, light browning throughout but more so near the edges, some edge tears & minor archival mends, generally in very nice condition for a newspaper of this vintage. This is one of the better reports on the Wright brothers we have had the pleasure to offer, and dated just 2 days after their historic flight.

THE DAILY PICAYUNE, New Orleans, Louisiana, December 19, 1903  * Famous Wright Brothers flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina * Orville & Wilbur Wright * Historic 1st report on airplane The significance of the report within the issue is equaled only by the insignificance of its placement & focus, as this newspaper gives a first report of the first manned flight, an event which would change the world forever and become a defining event of the 20th century. Less than 66 years after the Wright brothers successful flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, man was walking on the moon. Page 15 of this 16 page newspaper contains a report near the bottom of the page which is headed: "MACHINE FLIES" "Successful Trial Trip Near Kitty Hawk, N.C." "Two Six Blade Propellers, Operated by Gasoline Engine, Furnish Motive Power". The full text of the report can be seen in the photos--and is actually longer than most newspaper accounts, which rarely extended beyond one paragraph--includes near the beginning: "A successful trial trip of a flying machine was made yesterday near Kitty Hawk, N.C. by Wilbur and Orville Wright, of Dayton, Ohio. The machine few for three miles...and then gracefully descended to earth at the spot selected by the man in the navigator's car...The machine has no balloon attachment..." with more (see).  Apparently few recognized then how this event would change the world. Complete in 16 pages, some browning or light dirtiness to an upper quadrant of the front page, cleanly loose at the spine, some minor margin wear. Actually in better condition than most newspapers of this vintage, as typically early 20th century issues are exceedingly pulpish and fragile. But this issue must be handled carefully too.

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, January 2, 1904  * Wright Brothers fly at Kitty Hawk (historic)  * Wilbur and Orville Wright  The significance of this issue is the lengthier-than-most report on page 10 headed: "A Flying-Machine That Flies" which is the great and very historic report of the first successful flight of the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk.  The article begins with a cautious note: "Stories of flying machines that fly are to be received with exceeding caution...the rule has been that they don't fly unless they have balloon attachments. " and it continues with: "What looks like a veritable exception to that rule was reported in the newspapers of December 19...recorded that a flying machine made by Wilbur and Orville Wright, of Dayton, Ohio, was tried at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina...and few three miles against the wind, descending gracefully on the spot selected by Wilbur Wright, the navigator aboard. This machine had no balloon but was compounded of a big box-kite & a small gasolene engine..." It then goes on with further details (see photos for full text). An extremely significant report which was not reported in all newspapers of the day given the number of hoaxes and false reports, as noted in this article's leading statement. Additionally the centerfold spread is an article titled: "Italian Without A Master. -- By Mark Twain" which includes many graphics (see). Also included is the "inside" title page (see) featuring a political cartoon by W. A. Rogers: "Prospects OF A Very Happy New Year."  Some wear at the spine, & in the lower right corner, has binding residue in the left margin, otherwise good. 30 pages.

LIFE, from New York, New York, dated April 11, 1907 * Clarence Cole Phillips print Tipped-in double page centerfold by C. Cole Phillips is captioned: * The Cup That Clears To-Day Of Past Regrets And Future Fears Shows a well-dressed young woman & a well-dressed mature woman (with a red nose), each raising a small glass, presumably of booze. 4to-size, 16 pages. wikipedia notes: Clarence Coles Phillips (1880, Springfield, Ohio - 1927, New Rochelle, New York) was an American artist. While studying at Kenyon College in 1902, he found an audience for drawing in the school yearbooks. His drawings appear in the 1901-1904 issues of The Reveille, and in the 1921 and 1922 editions of the U.S. Naval Academy's yearbook, "Lucky bag". After leaving Kenyon, Phillips moved to New York determined to earn a living with his art. After taking classes in art school, Phillips started his own advertisement agency. In 1907, Phillips met with J.A. Mitchell, the publisher of Life Magazine, and was hired at the age of 26. Phillips would be associated with the magazine throughout his life. Phillips became very popular with readers and was awarded cover assignments. In 1908, he created a cover that would become his trademark--by combining foreground and background elements of the same color, he created the "fadeaway girl," which became a popular convention in print art for decades to come. Phillips lived and worked in New Rochelle, New York, a popular residential community for illustrators including JC Leyendecker and Norman Rockwell. He died in 1927 at the age of 47. The day he died, his good friend and neighbor in New Rochelle, JC Leyendecker took the four Phillips children into Manhattan to see the Charles Lindbergh Parade on Fifth Avenue.
