World War I ace and aviation pioneer (1892–1927). DS, signed “C. H. Nungesser,” three pages on two adjoining sheets, 8.5 x 14, October 9, 1924. Aviation Insurance Proposal document covering such topics as damage, third-party damage, fire, and burglary and theft, including appropriate exclusions. Several questions have been answered on the page, including the explanation that the policy would cover flights with “No cargo. No tests. No passengers for hire. Straight flights. No exclusions.” Mild toning and soiling, missing lower right corners, and missing paper at the right side at the horizontal fold, otherwise fine condition. Superb aviation content of the man who would later die in an attempt to fly across the Atlantic Ocean twelve days before Charles Lindbergh’s 1927 successful flight. Accompanied by an unsigned framed photo of the pilot in dress uniform with all 30 of his medals.
