VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement heralds the dawn of a new era in aviation with its bold title "All-Metal Aeroplanes and Seaplanes." It showcases the Short 'Silver Streak' aircraft, a pioneering all-metal design by Short Brothers (Rochester & Bedford) Ltd., which marked a significant technological advancement at the time. The ad emphasizes the plane's suitability for military naval patrol and passenger postal goods transport, reflecting its versatility and appeal to both government and commercial interests. Notably, this British innovation was exhibited at the International Aero Exhibition in Olympia, London, in July 1920—a testament to Britain's leading role in early 20th-century aviation development.
