EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a momentous occasion in aviation history - the Powderpuff Derby Aviatrix of 1929. A group of fearless women flyers gathered at the Breakfast Club in Los Angeles, California, ready to embark on the first National Women's Air Derby. The race would take them from Clover Field in Santa Monica all the way to Cleveland, Ohio. In this iconic image, we see an extraordinary lineup of pioneering aviators who defied societal norms and shattered glass ceilings. From left to right, we have Louise Thaden, Bobbie Trout, Patty Willis, Marvel Crosson, Blanche Noyes, Vera Dawn Walker, Amelia Earhart herself, Marjorie Crawford, Ruth Elder and Florence Lowe Barnes. While only one could claim victory in this thrilling competition that showcased their exceptional skills as pilots and their unwavering determination to compete alongside men in a male-dominated field. It was Louise Thaden who crossed the finish line first with Earhart securing an impressive third place. This photograph is not just a snapshot frozen in time; it represents an era when these remarkable women dared to dream big and challenged conventions. Their courage paved the way for future generations of female aviators and serves as a reminder that gender should never limit one's aspirations or abilities.
