 Processing History

The materials in the collection were evidently assembled by staff of the magazine L’Aerophile which was published by Georges Besançon in collaboration with Union Aérophile de France. After its purchase in 1969, the collection was sorted and arranged into boxes.

An initial finding aid was encoded by Glenn Gardner of the LC EAD Practices Group in September, 2006. This finding aid was revised and expanded between June and August, 2009, by three Junior Fellows, Frank Garmon, Sarah Hallett, and Ruth Lincoln.

Frank Garmon added envelope descriptions to the finding aid, and described the contents of boxes 1-4, 9 and 9A, 15, 18 and 18A, 22-29, 37-39, 45, 47, 54, 65, 70, 107-111, 113-114, 127-129, and 147-149.

Sarah Hallett completed boxes 10-11, and box 30.

Ruth Lincoln completed boxes 40-41, 63, and box 69.

Boxes 12-14, 16-17, 19-21, 31-36, 42-44, 46, 48-53, 55-62, 64, 66-68, 71-106, 115-126, 130-146, 150 and 150A remain to be described or are partially described.

 Background

In January 1893 the French journalist and balloonist Georges Besançon (1866-1934), in collaboration with the Union Aérophile de France, began publishing a monthly illustrated revue , L'Aerophile (published 1893-1947). Quickly, L'Aerophile became one of the premier journals of the early history of aviation. The first years were devoted to balloonists and the importance of meteorology on ballooning (for example, atmospheric effects on equipment, instruments, and humans). In later years, as artificial wings, gliders, man- and engine-powered planes were developed, the magazine brought their stories to the public. The materials in the collection were evidently assembled by staff of the magazine L’Aerophile.

 Scope and Content Note

The fifteen thousand or so items contained in the 152 boxes of the Library of Congress collection include blueprints and manufactures' information of early French and foreign aircraft and dirigibles, reports of accidents involving flyers and balloonists, aerial photographs from World War I, and a series of French cartoons from the period 1909 - 1912 related to aviation. The collection also contains hundreds of photographs of early aviators and designers, including pictures of Charles Lindbergh and his wife Anne Morrow being feted in Paris during their European trip of 1933. A large number of L'Aerophile images appeared in the National Air and Space Museum's major exhibition in 2003 celebrating the centennial of the Wright brothers' first flight, titled the Wright Brothers & the Invention of the Aerial Age.
