EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable journey of Alcock and Brown, two pioneering aviators who made history in 1919. The image showcases their Vickers-Vimy-Rolls bomber, which crash-landed in an Irish bog after a non-stop transatlantic flight from St. John's, Newfoundland to Clifden, Connemara, County Galway, Ireland. In just 16 hours, these fearless men defied all odds and pushed the boundaries of aviation. The photograph is a testament to the courage and determination of these trailblazers as they embarked on this daring adventure. It serves as a reminder of the incredible progress made during the early years of flight and highlights the significance of their achievement. Preserved within this historical archive piece from "These Tremendous Years" published in 1938, we are transported back to that pivotal moment in time when Alcock and Brown etched their names into aviation history. The wreckage of their plane amidst the Irish bog symbolizes both triumph and adversity - a tangible representation of their audacious spirit. As we gaze upon this vintage print today, it evokes feelings of awe and admiration for these brave individuals who paved the way for future generations. Their legacy lives on through this powerful image that encapsulates not only a record-breaking feat but also embodies human ingenuity at its finest.
