Type & Size: A 7×10 original Type 1 (original negatives) photograph. Condition: All photos are in good to excellent condition for their age, unless otherwise outlined here. Photos of any major imperfections will be included. This image captures a significant moment in aviation history: President Franklin D. Roosevelt presenting the Collier Trophy, an annual award recognizing outstanding achievements in aviation, to Juan T. Trippe, the founder of Pan American Airways. The event took place in Washington D.C. on August 6. In the photograph, Roosevelt is seated at a desk, engaged in dialogue with Trippe and Thomas Beck, the president of Collier’s magazine. A bronze statue representing aviation achievement and the trophy can be seen prominently on the desk. The Collier Trophy was established in 1911 and is considered one of the highest honors in aviation. This specific presentation recognized Trippe’s vital contributions to trans-Pacific air travel, a significant advancement in the growth of global aviation networks. Trippe was instrumental in launching Pan Am’s operations and pioneering various routes, which established the airline as a major player in international aviation. The event also highlighted Roosevelt’s support for aviation as a critical component of national development, reflecting the evolving landscape of transportation and commerce in the 1930s. === This is a 7×10 original type 1 (from original negative) photograph is from the personal collection of photographer Wes Howland (1906-1956). Howland was a reporter with the Harris-Ewing news service in Washington D.C from 1931-1941, and went on to serve with the military. He was one of a small number of photographers with complete access to the White House, Capitol, Senate, and House. This photo was part of a collection of over 1200 large photos from Wes Howland personal archive that we acquired from his estate. Included with the lot was the following note from a relative: «Periodically he would send his glossys to his mother. Soon after (joining the Marines) the newspaper of Harris & Ewing went out of business. As far as I know, the hundreds of pictures he took and sent his mother are one of a kind, and the only ones in existence. No prints have ever been made. I inherited them from my grandmother.» Not only did Mr Howland have incredible access to the government figures of the day but he was a highly skilled photographer who produced some stunning historical images and documented Washington D.C. in the 1930s like few others.
