Orville Wright Signed 4.5x6 Photo (BGS)

Photo measures approximately 4.5" x 6" in size and has been hand-signed by Orville Wright (D.1948).

The Wright brothers, Orville (August 19, 1871 – January 30, 1948) and Wilbur (April 16, 1867 – May 30, 1912), were two American aviators, engineers, inventors, and aviation pioneers who are generally credited with inventing, building, and flying the world's first successful airplane. Orville piloted the first controlled, sustained flight of a powered, heavier-than-air aircraft on December 17, 1903, four miles south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. In 1904–05 the brothers developed their flying machine into the first practical fixed-wing aircraft. Although not the first to build and fly experimental aircraft, the Wright brothers were the first to invent and patent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight possible.
