EDITORS COMMENTS
Seconde et derniere ascension du ballon Monstre: A Historic Announcement of Charles Green's Final and Most Spectacular Balloon Flight with the Monster Balloon, Paris, 1837 On a crisp January morning in 1837, Parisian spectators gathered in eager anticipation at the Caserne, rue du Faubourg-Poissonniere, for an aeronautical event unlike any other. The announcement, as published in this broadside, declared the 'Seconde et derniere ascension du ballon Monstre' (Second and Last Ascension of the Monster Balloon), to be undertaken by none other than the renowned British aeronaut, Charles Green. Green, an experienced balloonist, had constructed and would pilot the colossal Monstre balloon, which had previously captured the imagination of the public with its impressive size and daring flights. This final ascent promised to be an unforgettable spectacle, with the balloon expected to reach new heights and distances, leaving the audience in awe of human achievement and the wonders of science. The broadside, adorned with intricate illustrations of the Monstre balloon and its daring pilot, serves as a testament to the excitement and fascination that surrounded early ballooning. As the date of January 9th, 1837, approached, the anticipation grew, and the stage was set for an unforgettable adventure that would leave a lasting impact on the history of aeronautics. This text-only broadside, from the collection of Tissandier, is a rare and valuable document that offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the skies were still a frontier to be explored, and the dreams of mankind reached new heights.
