The boy aviators in record flight; or, The rival aeroplane
A 1910 American juvenile adventure novel, The Boy Aviators in Record Flight by Howard Payson, published in New York by Hurst for young readers, illustrated with black-and-white line drawings. The pictures are rotated sideways on the page, showing early biplanes, a touring car on a dirt road, a flying leap from the auto, and a hand thrust through a crack. Their clean pen-and-ink hatching and bold silhouettes suggest a designer could borrow the vintage aviation mood and simple engraved linework for period-style posters or packaging.
