VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Westland Aircraft Works, showcasing three different models of military aircraft. At the top left, there's an image of the "Westland Wapiti with Jupiter Engine, " described as a "General Purposes" machine supplied to the Royal Air Force and R. A. A. F. , suitable for reconnaissance, bombing, wireless photography, etc. , fitted with Handley-Page Automatic Slot. Below it on the left side is another aircraft labeled "The Westland Widgeon" which comes with Cirrus III or Gipsy Engine—an ideal light aeroplane for private owners and clubs. The right side features an additional model in flight. The ad emphasizes that these aircraft are all-metal construction and promotes the company's location in Yeovil, England. The central logo displays a bold double 'W' insignia representing Westland Aircraft Works. Contact information at the bottom includes telegraph address 'AIRCRAFT YEOWIL, ' suggesting this ad dates back to when telegraphs were commonly used for business communication. Overall, this image captures a piece of aviation history from an era when biplanes were prevalent in military and civilian aviation sectors.
