Century of Flight

The early xxth century was also the golden age of graphic design, in my book—what a nice composition. This cover is from 1908, just a scant 5 years after the Wright boys' first powered flight, and it's a lovely touch placing a woman in the pilot cradle. The xxth century was a century of flight.
