EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the legendary Colonel Cody on his biplane, showcasing a remarkable blend of aviation and Wild West history. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print is now part of a private collection. Intriguingly, this image was originally featured as an illustration for The Year 1913 Illustrated publication by Headley Brothers. It transports us back to a time when flight was still considered dangerous and daring. Colonel Cody's presence adds an air of excitement and adventure to the scene. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of the risks early aviators faced in their pursuit of conquering the skies. The year 1913 marked a pivotal moment in flight history, with Samuel Franklin Cody emerging as both a showman and pioneer in aviation. The biplane itself stands as a testament to technological progress during that era. Its sleek design symbolizes mankind's relentless quest for innovation and exploration. This photograph not only captures an iconic figure but also serves as a window into transportation history. From its humble beginnings, flight has evolved into one of humanity's most significant achievements – revolutionizing passenger transportation forever. Bridgeman Images' preservation of this extraordinary piece allows us to appreciate the courage, determination, and ingenuity that propelled pioneers like Colonel Cody towards new horizons in aviation.
