EDITORS COMMENTS
"This vintage lantern slide depicts Samuel Franklin Cody, a pioneering figure in the early history of aviation. Born in England in 1867, Cody is best known for his achievements in aviation during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. He began his career as a circus performer and later turned to ballooning, setting several altitude records in the late 1890s. In 1908, Cody made history by becoming the first person to fly an aircraft across the English Channel. He achieved this feat in a biplane named the "Britannia," which he designed and built himself. Cody's daring accomplishment came just a few years after the Wright brothers' first powered flight in 1903 and marked a significant milestone in the development of aviation. This lantern slide captures Cody in his element, standing confidently before his aircraft with a determined expression on his face. The intricate details of the image, from the folds in his coat to the rivets on the plane, transport us back to an era of innovation and adventure. The black-and-white photograph adds to the timeless quality of the image, making it a fascinating glimpse into the past. Samuel Franklin Cody's pioneering spirit and groundbreaking achievements continue to inspire generations of aviators and innovators. This lantern slide is a testament to his legacy and a reminder of the incredible progress that has been made in aviation over the past century." The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online is an extensive collection of historical photographs, including this stunning image of Samuel Franklin Cody. The collection offers a wealth of resources for researchers, educators, and anyone interested in exploring the rich history of photography and the world around us.
