Description

French pilot and WWI fighter ace (1892-1927) who mysteriously disappeared on an attempt to make the first non-stop transatlantic flight from Paris to New York. Scarce vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 portrait of Nungesser proudly wearing his numerous military decorations, signed in crisp fountain pen, "Sincerely, Ch. Nungesser." In fine condition, with a short tear to the right border. The French ace and chief rival of Charles Lindbergh remains particularly uncommon in signed photographs.
