A framed grouping of material on the Wright Brothers and the famed 1903 First Flight at Kitty Hawk. WITH ORIGINAL PIECES OF WOOD AND FABRICE FROM THE KITTY HAWK FLYER USED IN THE HISTORIC FIRST FLIGHT. The small pieces were salvaged by Orville Wright after the plane was badly damaged in the 1913 Dayton Flood. Accompanying the pieces is a letter from Col. Edwin A. Deeds explaining how Orville wished to present the parts to the people who assisted him in restoring the 1905 Wright Flyer. Deeds notes he took the pieces and had them framed (under plexiglass) along with a photograph of a typed signed statement of authentication Wright had prepared just before his death. The entire framed item has been reframed in this modern grouping. A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PIECE OF HUMAN HISTORY - THE RELICS OF THE FIRST HUMAN FLIGHT.
