Taken by renowned photographer Jessie Tarbox Beals, this print is now part of the esteemed collection at the New-York Historical Society in the USA. The image captures a close-up of an airship called "California Arrow" soaring high above, with Capt Tom Baldwin visible aboard the gondola. The pilot can be seen skillfully maneuvering and steering with what appears to be a wind panel. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into early aviation technology and highlights Baldwin's courage as he navigated through the skies. The black and white composition adds depth and timelessness to this remarkable moment frozen in history. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire for exploration and adventure. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph, we are transported back to an era when airships were still considered cutting-edge innovations.
