1927 NY Spokane Air Derby 7th National Air Race Ticket Spirit of St. Louis

Description

Up for grabbs is a chance in a life time to step back in history. Just 4 months after Charles Lindbergh flew the Atlantic in the Spirit of St. Louis airplane. The 7th National Air Races were to be held in Spokane, Washington. The Air Race started in New York and ended up in Spokane. There was also the Pacific Coast Air Race that started in San Francisco, California and ended up in Spokane at the same time.
Charles Lindbergh flew the Spirit of St. Louis to Spokane
to help kick off the Air Race but did not participate in the race. All the hype with Lindbergh crossing the Atlantic, and now making the rounds; around the USA in the famous airplane brought out the largest aviation event in history until it was surpassed by EAA at Oshkosh 50 years later.
This ticket that you are viewing features the Spirit of St. Louis airplane and is an exact replica.
