Superb grouping from pioneering French aircraft designer and builder Louis Charles Breguet (1880–1955), remembered for his Breguet XIX which crossed the Atlantic in 1930, with Costes and Bellonte as pilots. Includes:

A matte-finish 9 x 6.75 photo of Breguet setting a world record by lifting ten passengers at Douai for a ten-kilometer flight on March 23, 1911, neatly signed and inscribed in fountain pen by Louis Breguet. Two other photographs are affixed to the 15.25 x 11.75 mount as a photographic montage.

An original vintage 6.75 x 4.75 photograph of Breguet in his cockpit at the 1909 Reims Air Meet.

Six original vintage photographs, ranging in size from 6.5 x 4.5 to 9 x 6.5, of the Breguet booth at the Paris Air Show in 1910–1911.

Four original vintage 6.25 x 4.5 photographs of a Breguet military biplane flying at Villacoublay in the spring of 1912. In overall very good to fine condition, with foxing, and a corner crease, to the mount.
