Large framed reproduction of the famous poster for the Wright Brothers Dayton celebration in 1909

$290.00

A large framed reproduction print of a poster welcoming The Wright Brothers to Dayton, Ohio June 17-18, 1909.

The achievements of the Wright Brothers weren’t immediately recognized, not even in their hometown of Dayton, but six years after their successful flight at Kitty Hawk the city held a huge celebration in their honor. The striking poster that announced the event sells today at auction for $15,000+. Our reproduction is beautifully framed and much, much more affordable.

— Lee Wright | Founder (and no relation to the famous aviators)

Print size: 23.75" x 17.75"

Frame size: 35.25" x 29.25"

Shipping: $50. Please allow one week for shipping.
