Lot Description
WRIGHT, Orville (1871-1948). Autograph letter signed ("Orville Wright"), to Mr. Woodhouse. Dayton, Ohio, n.d.
1 page, 4to, on The Wright Company letterhead, minor creasing at folds, a few pale marginal stains. He writes about use of some old photographs (not included), presumably of the early flights: "I am inclosing [sic] several old prints. You may use any you choose, but please take good care of them and return as soon as you are done with them. The negatives from which these were made were in the flood and were somewhat injured." Orville Wright letters in autograph are uncommon.
