Curtiss JN-4D Jenny, 1917-1925. Creator: Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company
Single-engine, two-seat, U.S.-built World War I trainer aircraft; 90-horsepower Curtiss OX-5 engine. Tan wings, brown and blue fuselage. The Curtiss JN-4D is almost synonymous with American aviation in the 1920s. The Jenny, as it was affectionately called, appeared in 1917. Heretofore having only produced pusher aircraft, Glenn Curtiss hired an experienced European designer to lead the new project named B. Douglas Thomas, who had worked for Avro and Sopwith in England. The Jenny performed admirably as a trainer for the U.S. Air Service during World War I, but its more significant role in aviation history was as a barnstorming and mail-carrying airplane in the 1920s. Large numbers of relatively inexpensive war surplus Jennys were available in the United States after 1918. Its affordability, ease of operation, and versatility made the Jenny the signature airplane of the barnstorming era. The Smithsonian acquired this Jenny in 1918 directly from the U.S. War Department. It is one of the finest remaining examples of this truly classic airplane

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Curtiss JN-4D Jenny, a legendary aircraft that played a significant role in American aviation during the 1920s. Built by the esteemed Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company, this single-engine, two-seat World War I trainer aircraft was powered by a robust 90-horsepower Curtiss OX-5 engine. With its tan wings and brown and blue fuselage, the Jenny exudes timeless charm. Originally designed as a training plane for the U. S. Air Service during World War I, it quickly became renowned for its exceptional performance. However, its true claim to fame came after the war when large numbers of affordable surplus Jennys flooded the market. The affordability, ease of operation, and versatility of this remarkable aircraft made it an instant favorite among barnstormers and mail carriers alike in the 1920s. The Jenny's ability to captivate audiences with daring aerial stunts and deliver mail across vast distances solidified its status as an emblematic symbol of that era. Acquired directly from the U. S. War Department in 1918, this particular Jenny is now proudly housed at Smithsonian Institution - one of only a few remaining examples of this truly classic airplane. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we are transported back to a time when aviation was still in its infancy but already capturing hearts around the world with machines like these magnificent Jennys from Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company.
