VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image features a vintage advertisement for Reid-Sigrist Instruments, highlighting their role in aviation achievements. The ad proclaims "MORE ACHIEVEMENTS on REID-SIGRIST INSTRUMENTS" and details two significant records: 1. SOUTH ATLANTIC FLIGHT by Miss Jean Batten, who flew a Percival Gull across the South Atlantic in 13 hours and 15 minutes using Reid-Sigrist Turn Indicator and Fore-and-Aft Level. 2. ENGLAND-AUSTRALIA SOLO RECORD by Mr. H. F. Broadbent, achieved in 6 days 21 hours 19 minutes with a Percival Gull equipped with a Reid-Sigrist Turn and Bank Indicator. The central part of the image shows an aircraft instrument panel featuring one of the advertised navigation instruments—a turn indicator—with its needle pointing to level flight. Below this graphic is the bold text "REID-SIGRIST The world's finest Air Navigation Instruments. " At the bottom left corner is printed: "REID & SIGRIST LTD. , SHANNON CORNER, KINGSTON BY-PASS, NEW MALDEN, SURREY, " indicating the location of the company's headquarters at that time. The overall design conveys a sense of pride in technological advancement and reliability associated with air travel during that era.
