E-2991 Rare and historic section
of aircraft from a crashed and marooned US
aircraft that went down in Mexico in 1919.
The verso written in ink with the text of
the last will and testament of two American
Pilots Cecil Connolly and Fred Waterhouse,
who crashed in the Baja de California, south
of San Diego, after a storm, and who
survived 17 days without food, only to be
picked up and subsequently killed by two
Mexican fishermen. The paint on the painted
side badly worn, the verso slightly
discolored with oil stains to left margin.
Together with two identical photographs of
the two draped coffins aboard the USS
Aaron Ward.
The tale of the
tragic death of two American Army flyers,
attached to the 9th Aero Squadron, based in
San Diego, who whilst on patrol hit a storm
and were thrown dramatically off course.
They eventually found land and crashed on an
open beach at Refugio de Guadelupe, a
deserted area on the eastern shore of the
Baja de California, south of the Mexican
border. With little or no food they survived
17 days waiting on the beach, until they
were discovered by two Mexican fishermen,
who took them in, fed them, but in some
argument between the parties, the flyers
were both killed, apparently on September
3rd 1919. The bodies were recovered in
October 19th 1919 at Angeles Bay by the US
Navy, according to the writer of the text,
and brought aboard USS Aaron Ward to
be returned to San Diego. A Mexican Judge in
Tijuana in October 1921, two years later,
sentenced the two men to 6 years
imprisonment for homicide during a fight,
and in 1928 the Connolly family sought
financial recompense from the Mexican
Government for covering up the two deaths.
The text appears to have been transcribed by
a naval officer, who was there when the
bodies were recovered (see the hand writing
on one of the photographs shot onboard the
USS Aaron Ward), probably copying an
original text found on the flyer's person.

E-2778 Extremely RARE WWI Flour Sack sent to
Belgium to feed the starving citizens ofthe occupied
areas. The Germans were confiscating food and the Belgian
already were importing 75% of their food prior to WWI. The
Germans would not let the refugees go into Germany, nor
would they let them pass through the front lines into
France. Herbert Hoover negotiated with the British ,
French and Germans to allow this humanitarian aid.
Outrageously rare item of early US aid. Between 1914 and
1919, the CRB operated entirely with voluntary efforts and
was able to feed 11,000,000 Belgians by raising the
necessary money, obtaining voluntary contributions of
food, shipping the food past the German submarine
blockades and army occupied areas, and controlling the
food distribution in Belgium. The CRB shipped 697,116,000
pounds of flour to Belgium and evidence indicates that
sugar and grains were also sent. The flour was packaged in
cotton
flour sacks by American mills. The movement of these
bags throughout Belgium was carefully controlled by the
CRB since cotton was in great demand for the manufacture
of German ammunition and also because the CRB feared that
the flour sacks would be taken out of Belgium, refilled
with inferior flour, and resold as relief flour. As a
result, the empty flour sacks were carefully accounted for
and distributed to professional schools, sewing workrooms,
convents, and individual artists. Separate from the trade
schools of Belgium, the professional schools specialized
in training girls to sew, embroider, and make lace, and
the sewing workrooms were large centers established in the
major Belgian cities during the war to provide work for
the thousands of unemployed. Girls and women made famous
Belgian lace, embroidered textiles and repaired and remade
clothing in these workrooms. The flour sacks were used by
these various Belgian groups to make new clothing,
accessories, pillows, bags, and other functional items.

E-2876 Historic grouping of WWI Flight Helmet,
Flight Mittens and his post WWI Heavy Flight Suit. This
Officer was head of the AEF Balloon Service in France until
November of 1918. The Flight Helmet is lined with curley
brown lamb wool and is most likely of British manufacture.
The flight gloves have mitten tips, so the fingers can be
withdrawn for fine work and put back inside to keep out the
cold. They are most likely British manufacture. The Flight
suit is avery rare 1930s Czechoslovakian leather suit.
He was reactivated for WWII and he most likely used this
suit at that point. Very rare set to the overall command of
balloon forces in France!! $1750

E-2875 Amazing 1ST Division Silk and embroidered

require some attention. We have not tried to remove the
tape, so as not to cause more damage. Much of the edge
fringe has deteriorated. Needs to be framed. Will be the
