providing a coherent study of mankind’s earliest airborne
communications. Highlights include: 3 artist’s essays, notably
original adopted artwork by André Lavergne and rare bird sketches

subject, combining depth in proofs and essays with scarce pioneer
and military pigeon post items. Rarely offered in such a coherent
form. Ex. The ‘Izhak Barak’ Collection: The Development of Aviation
