A Moment of Aviation Delight: Lieutenant George Arthur Hyde's Encounter with Archie, the Sassafras Sopwith Camel This print depicts a moment of pure joy and surprise on the face of Lieutenant George Arthur Hyde, MC, as he experiences the mischievous antics of Archie, the Sassafras Sopwith Camel, for the very first time. As a distinguished officer in the Kings Royal Rifle Corps and 54 Squadron Royal Flying Corps during World War I, Hyde was no stranger to the thrills and challenges of air combat. Yet, the addition of this unconventional passenger in the cockpit of his biplane brought an unexpected element of humor and lightness to the harsh realities of wartime aviation. The year was 1918, and the First Great War was drawing to a close. Hyde, a seasoned pilot, was known for his bravery and skill in the sky. However, this encounter with Archie, a cartoon character created by the British satirical magazine, The Bystander, would leave an indelible mark on his aviation career and the annals of military history. In this charming illustration, Hyde's focus is fixed on the mischievous Archie, who clings to the side of the biplane with a playful grin. The contrast between the stern, determined expression of the pilot and the whimsical presence of the cartoon character adds a delightful touch to the scene. The backdrop of the vast, blue sky and the white, fluffy clouds further emphasizes the freedom and exhilaration of flight. This print, a testament to the human spirit and the ability to find humor even in the most trying of circumstances, is a must-have for aviation enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone who appreciates the lighter side of military history. A true treasure from the archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, it offers a unique glimpse into the past and the remarkable stories that shaped the history of aviation during the First World War.
