Description

Twelve seconds: Wright signs a photo of his historic first flight

Historic vintage 6.25 x 4.25 cardstock photo captioned “First Man-flight, December 17, 1903, Kitty Hawk, N.C.,” signed in ink at the lower left corner of the image, “Orville Wright.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope bearing a Dayton postmark of February 5, 1926. In very good condition, with trimming to top edge, light soiling and a few scattered spots (including paperclip stains at top edge, slightly touching background), and small tear and creases to border. Despite these faults (many of which can easily be matted out), the photo bears a clear, dark signature and will display quite nicely. LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
