Los Angeles 1910 Aviation Contest Celluloid, 6" in diameter, backed with cardboard (with a metal easel for display), an incredible artifact from the famed 1910 Los Angeles International Air Meet, featuring a wonderfully fanciful
design of airplanes, dirigibles, and hot air balloons while well-dressed men and women look to the skies with binoculars, a label on the back identifies the piece as having been made by the L.A. Badge and Mfg. Co., some light spots on the face, but
considering the age of the piece it is remarkably attractive, an exceedingly rare souvenir from one of the first and most famous air meets in history
