Key West cancellation dated February 8, 1928 on verso. The letter was almost certainly carried by airmail by Pan American Airways, which in 1927 had established an airmail route between Key West and Havana. Newspaper clipping inside dated September 1927 in Spanish but unclear which article was being clipped or if paper was just a wraparound for a letter. Approx. 6 1/2 x 3 1/2".

		Yellow and red advertising card for Blue Sunoco Motor Fuel and Sunoco Winter Oil, which when placed inside the Arrowbile, the "world's first flying automobile," which was then "kept for hours at 15 degrees below zero in a big refrigerator room," still allows its motor to be started in 2/5 of a second, as confirmed by a Western Union representative. The placard shows both the flying car in flight and frozen. A story in the Cooperstown (New York) Otsego Farmer from 1937 mentions the test and Sunoco products in a "news" story accompanied by the same photo of the plane. The W-5 Arrowbile, released in 1936, was a "hybrid flying auto" that could travel up to 70 mph on roads and 120 mph in the air. Because it only had three wheels and a single headlight, it may have been a motorcycle. Approx. 8 1/2 x 3 3/4".

		Autograph of Lt. Albert Hegenberger (1895-1983), who on June 28, 1927 (a month after the solo Atlantic crossing of Charles Lindbergh), with co-pilot Lester Maitland, flew a trimoter Fokker monoplane, the Bird of Paradise, 2,418 miles nonstop from Oakland, California to Hawaii in 25 hours and 50 minutes. His signature is accompanied by a newspaper photo and his name pasted onto the 3 1/2 x4 1/2" paper and a notation in pencil that reads "Camp Devens 1927 after speaking." The camp, located in Ayers and Shirley, Massachusetts, would become Fort Devens. News accounts place his visit as July 28, 1927 ("Trans Pacific Flier Here," The Lowell Sun). At the time Hegenberger spoke, Devens was a National Guard training camp. The autograph is accompanied by an 8 by 10 inch official B&W Air Force glossy photo taken at Wright Field in Ohio.

		Wonderful graphic, with large portrait of Amy, her aircraft in the background; photo by Vaughan Freeman; illustration by Laurence Wright.  Price '6D" at lower right corner.  Sheet music of music "specially composed for the homecoming of the heroine of the England-Australia flight 1930, Miss Amy Johnson," entitled simply "Amy." The words are by Joseph George Gilbert and the music by Horatio Nicholls, with arrangement for banjo and ukulele by Alvin Keech. It begins, "There's a little lady who has captured every heart, Amy Johnson, it's you!" and then only gets better. No. 2021. Amy Johnson (1903-1941), while flying solo or with her husband, Jim Mollison (who had proposed to her only eight hours after they met), set a number of distance records during the 1930s. The song commemorates the flight that brought her worldwide fame, when she flew solo from England to Australia in her "Jason" Gipsy Moth. She left Croydon, south of London, on May 5 and arrived in Darwin, Northern Territory on May 24 after flying 11,000 miles. Jason, shown on the cover of this sheet music, is now at the Science Museum of London. Johnson drowned in the Thames Estuary in January 1941 after bailing out of her plane while serving with the Air Transport Auxiliary. Approx. 9 1/2 x 12".  Chipped at bottom with some loss, but not affecting image.

		This is a presentation copy, signed "For Corliss and Margaret from Anne, March 1944", and also signed with the full signature on the title page.  With a remarkable commentary in the back by Corliss Lamont, (the dedicatee) her good friend.  In notations covering the last 2 blank endpapers, Lamont describes a conversation he had with Anne about the book.  "Anne tried to explain this book a little to Margaret and me.  She said she had not intended to give the impression mother and I both got, that the intensest (sic) appreciation of life came in the shadow of death and danger... In further conversation Anne remarked this book was her last for the present, because her writings were so misunderstood and so constantly analyzed in terms of the alleged influence and ideas of Charles Lindbergh... I said that people like her and myself must somehow learn to take bitter attacks and criticism less hard; to become hard-boiled ourselves towards such onslaughts.  She said she naturally felt love toward people and was surprised to find how so many hated her.  As for not being so sensitive to attacks, she made this excellent answer: "How can the essentially sensitive person keep from being sensitive; and can we want a person whose profession, as it were is to be sensitive, to be insensitive?"  C.L.  Small 8vo, 120 pp. Dark blue cloth cover with white title on spine. Slightly rubbed at top and base of spine. Faint white shelf markings at bottom edges and corners slightly rubbed.

In the preface to this work, Lindbergh writes, "I believe the values we are creating and the standards we are now following will lead to the end of our civilization, and that if we do not control our science by a higher moral force, it will destroy us with its materialistic values, its rocket aircraft, and its atom bombs- as it has already destroyed large parts of Europe".
