Commemorative handkerchief celebrating Charles A. Lindbergh's historic solo transatlantic flight in the "Spirit of St. Louis".
The Event:
Lindbergh's flight from New York to Paris occurred on May 20-21, 1927, taking 33.5 hours.
Significance:
This groundbreaking achievement made Lindbergh an international hero and significantly boosted interest in aviation, leading to the "Lindbergh boom".
The Handkerchief:
This specific handkerchief was likely a souvenir given away during the "Welcome Home" celebrations, such as the ticker-tape parade in New York City in June 1927.
The Aircraft:
The "Spirit of St. Louis," officially the Ryan NYP, was named to honor Lindbergh's supporters in St. Louis who helped fund the project.
