Charles Lindbergh "new York–paris" – éditions Patria, Antwerp, May 28, 1927

An extremely rare historical document and firsthand account of the history of global aviation. This special issue of the Belgian weekly illustrated magazine Piccolo, published by the prestigious Éditions Patria in Antwerp (Antwerp), is dedicated to the historic solo flight across the North Atlantic by Charles Lindbergh aboard the Spirit of St. Louis.

Published on May 28, 1927—exactly one week after the legendary landing at Le Bourget and in the midst of the pilot’s official visit to Belgium (May 29–30, 1927)— this raw news item is a first-rate collector’s item (ephemera).
Unobtainable on the current market, absent from standard ephemera catalogs.
Perfect for a cabinet of curiosities or a discerning collector of European aviation history.

Condition: Complete, in good overall condition. Covers have stains and foxing (see photos); interior is fairly fresh with very few stains.
