VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image appears to be a vintage document or advertisement related to aviation, specifically from Imperial Airways and West Australian Airways Ltd. The text at the top of the page is stylized to read "Australia says W, " with "W" being emphasized in large font. Below this headline, there's a telegram-style message that reads: "VH/URT L382 PERTH WA 29 1206 DLT HAVILLAND EDGEWARE AUSTRALIA'S FIRST DRAGON HMS PROVED ITS ABILITY TO ACHIEVE PERFORMANCE FIGURES AND POSSESSES CHARACTERISTICS THAT ARE FAR SUPERIOR TO ANY OTHER AIRCRAFT DEMONSTRATED HERE CONGRATULATIONS ARRIVAS" The message seems to celebrate the performance of Australia's first de Havilland Dragon aircraft, noting its superior characteristics compared to other demonstrated aircraft. At the bottom left corner, there is information about 'THE DE HAVILLAND AIRCRAFT COMPANY LIMITED' located at Stag Lane Aerodrome, Edgware, Middlesex, England. On the bottom right side of the image is a brief description of West Australian Airways Ltd. , stating it was founded in 1920 and operates passenger and mail services between Perth and Wyndham and Perth and Adelaide. It also mentions routes covering over 3, 500 miles. Additionally, there are logos for associated companies in Canada (ASSOCIATED), Africa (ASSOCIATE), India (AGENCIES), selling service agents throughout the world. The overall appearance suggests that this might be an archival document celebrating an achievement in aviation history linked with Australia's use of de Havilland aircraft.
