THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, June 16, 1919
* 1st Non-stop Transatlantic airplane flight (historic)
* John Alcock & Arthur W. Brown
It may be a surprise to many that Charles Lindbergh was not the first to fly non-stop across the Atlantic (his was the first solo flight). Eight years previously the pair of John Alcock & Arthur Brown made the historic flight which this issue heralds with a terrific banner headline: "FLY OCEAN; NO STOP" with subheads and photos of the pilots. (see) Great for display.
Complete with 32 pages, light toning and a little wear at the margins, generally good. Should be handled with care.
