Airplane Altitude Record in 1911...



Item # 537752

August 19, 1911

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE, Omaha, Nebraska, August 19, 1911 
 
* Oscar Brindley... 
* Airplane altitude record broken... 


This 16 page newspaper has a three line, one column headline on the front page: "Brindley Sets New Altitude Mark for World in Air Boat" with subhead: "Aviator Soars Eleven Thousand Seven Hundred Feet, with Parmelee One Thousand Feet Below Him" and more.
 
Other news of the day throughout. Usual browning with margin wear especially at the spine. Should be handled with care.
