MANISTEE (MANISTEE COUNTY). "Passed over town in my / air ship. Below was not in sight when I took this. / Hal P. Smith // MANISTEE" with a panoramic view of the Michigan town, sepia-tone real photo post card mailed JAN 25 1906 (ink spot in dial of flag cancel) to Richard Warner Jr. of Grand Rapids Michigan (arrival mark the same day is clear on back), a little toning on the back, same identical handwriting & ink both sides. This aeronaut was tasked with controlling his craft and with controlling his camera. His written comment essentially tells us that his camera was being controlled remotely (by some undisclosed device). He necessarily focused his attention on the airship controls for his safety, rather than on the sights he could have seen below. Rare, interesting, and of historic importance. Consider: (1) The first aerial photo from a airplane was taken in 1909 by Wilbur Wright at Centrocelli Italy; (2) George Lawrence's 1906 panoramic photo of San Francisco ruined by an earthquake is literally famous. The photo Smith took obviously excited enough local interest to have a real photo postcard published with the indicated caption added at the lower right of the image. But it is his handwritten explanation that is most interesting. When one does something truly difficult, it is human nature to explain it, so that others understand how really difficult the task was. Look at how clear his writing is & his bold signature; he wants the viewer to know how proud he was of the planned photo & and how difficult it was to obtain it. $500.00 zpm
