EDITORS COMMENTS
Florence Desmond, the charismatic actress, graces this vintage photograph in her striking costume for the role of Mrs. Gladys Potts in the dance and theatrical revue, "Streamline," staged at the illustrious Palace Theatre in London during 1934. In this production, Florence became the first on-stage mother to fly across the North Pole with her baby, adding an extra dose of humor and whimsy to the show. The 1930s were an era of innovation and adventure, and Florence's real-life fascination with aviation was no exception. As the roaring twenties gave way to the thrilling thirties, the world was captivated by the daring feats of pioneering aviators. The trans-Pacific air race of 1934, won by C. W. A. Scott and T. Campbell Black, was a particular source of inspiration for the actress. In this photograph, Florence's aviatrix persona comes to life as she cradles a miniature prop plane, a microphone in hand, ready to broadcast her commentary on the thrilling world of flight. Her costume, complete with goggles, leather jacket, and aviator hat, exudes the spirit of adventure and determination that defined the era. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the impossible seemed within reach and the stage was the perfect place to explore the wonders of the world above.
