VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for The H. G. Hawker Engineering Co. , Ltd. , showcasing their role as designers and constructors to the Air Ministry and foreign governments. The top image features "The Cygnet Light Aeroplane, " a small, early model aircraft with biplane configuration, bearing the number 15 on its fuselage. Below it is an image of "The Hawker Woodcock II. S. Fighter, " another biplane with a more robust structure, equipped for military use as indicated by the designation 'fighter. ' Both images depict these historical aircraft on open ground, likely an airfield. Additional information provided in the advertisement includes the location of their works in Kingston, Surrey; their aerodrome at Brooklands, Surrey; contact details through phone (Kingston 1985) and telegrams (Grams: Hawker, Kingston). This ad reflects both the company's engineering capabilities during that era and provides insight into early aviation history and military procurement practices of the time.
