Geoffrey Watson (1894-1979): Early Aviation Prints.
A set of six framed, mounted and glazed monochrome prints of etchings by the artist (three credited to him in the image, but all appearing to be by the same hand), ex-Royal Aero Club, and depicting multiple images of aircraft in the period 1908 to 1915. Printed banners of detailed notes in the lower margins are headed: The Voisin; The Hanriot and Ponnier Monoplanes; Interesting Machines, 1910 (2 sets); The Curtis Biplanes; and The Short "Pushers". The frame sizes vary a little, the two largest being 15 x 19-inches (38 x 48cm), the other four 13½ x 19-inches (34½ x 48cm). Generally sound, but most in need of a clean and some repair work to the frames. (6)
