Description

VINTAGE WWI PHOTO
QUANTITY: 1 - See the other WWI aircraft photos that I have listed.
ITEM: Vintage AirPhotos Real Photo of BRITISH Royal Flying Corps RFC SOPWITH 1-1/2 STRUTTER BIPLANE FIGHTER.
The WWI aircraft photos I am listing were collected by Lieutenant Raymond Poterack from Grand Rapids, Michigan who was a US Navy pilot in WWII. In the 1940's he collected these AirPhotos of World War I fighters and bombers. These are real photos developed from negatives. The images are from WWI and they were developed by AirPhotos in Jamestown, New York in the 1940's. So they are not strictly original to WWI, but they are not recent reproductions either. Some of these are quite rare and sought after by collectors. Raymond Poterack was later a McDonnell Douglas engineer who worked on the F-4 Phantom Jet design team.
