- Delight and Learn: A Glimpse into the Fascinating World of Nineteenth-Century Aeronautics This print advertisement invites us to step back in time and explore the wonders of aeronautics as it was promoted in Paris during the late nineteenth century. The image, titled "Amuser et Instruire" or "Amuse and Instruct," showcases an array of intriguing toys that would have delighted children and adults alike. At the heart of the advertisement are the "Nouveaux Jouets Aériens et Autres X," or New Aerial Toys and Other X. These toys, crafted in the shape of fish, bats, and insects, are presented as airships, harnessing the power of the wind to take flight. The vibrant colors and detailed designs evoke a sense of wonder and excitement, transporting us to a world of imagination and discovery. The advertisement also features other captivating items, such as an Easter egg with an angel (fig. 10), a steam boat (fig. 11), and a hydrogen gas generator (fig. 12). The steam boat, with its paddle wheels and smokestack, offers a glimpse into the world of water transportation, while the hydrogen gas generator hints at the scientific advancements of the time. The advertisement was published by "Vert, mecanicien," located at 4 quai de Jemmapes in Paris. The shop's name suggests that the proprietor, Vert, was an experienced mechanic, lending credibility to the intricately designed toys on display. The location, on the banks of the Canal Saint-Martin, would have provided an ideal setting for showcasing these aeronautical marvels. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are reminded of the enduring allure of flight and the role that toys and curiosity played in shaping our understanding of the world around us. This advertisement invites us to indulge in the spirit of discovery and delight in the marvels of the past.
