EDITORS COMMENTS
This French Aeroplane Fantasy card, dated 1916, showcases an early monoplane soaring above a wishy-washy landscape. The monoplane, an innovation in aviation technology during the 1910s, boasts a sleek, single-wing design that sets it apart from the biplanes of the era. What makes this image truly extraordinary, however, is the young pilot at the helm. Defying the conventions of the time, a child, possibly a girl, confidently navigates the skies, her determined expression a testament to the boundless curiosity and adventurous spirit of the early aviation age. The landscape below is depicted in a soft, dreamlike manner, with hazy outlines and muted colors, adding an ethereal quality to the scene. This enchanting card, a relic from the dawn of aviation, transports us back to a time when the impossible seemed within reach, and the future held endless possibilities.
