VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Cellon, dating from the period between 1912 and 1919. The ad emphasizes the historical success of aircraft competitions won by machines using Cellon products as far back as 1912. It highlights the resurgence of interest in such competitions in 1919, with numerous orders being received for their product specifically for Atlantic flight endeavors. The ad positions Cellon as "The Dope of Proved Efficiency, " suggesting that its use is essential for aircraft builders who understand its importance. Additionally, it mentions that Cellon Ltd. was a contractor to His Majesty's Government, lending further credibility to its reputation. The company address is listed at 22, Cork Street, London W1. , with telephone and telegraph contact details provided below.
