Wilbur Wright, in profile, with a Wright Flyer. The original photographic postcard from which this image was copied was presented by Wright to pioneer aviator Jesse Brabazon of Delavan, Wisconsin. Brabazon recalled that at the time of the Chicago International Aviation Meet in 1912 he had been in correspondence with Wright about the purchase of a new plane. Wilbur looked him up during the Chicago meet and gave him the card. |
