  • TVL1970 said:
    The name inscribed on the photo is spelled incorrectly. This is a photo of aviator Overton M. "Rusty" Bounds (b. 1895 - d. 1942). At the time this photo was taken, Bounds was an instructor at the Army Aviation School in Mineola, Long Island. Sadly, Overton Bounds would die in 1942 as a result of being fatally struck by a taxiing aircraft's propeller at Cimarron Field, near Oklahoma City. See: earlyaviators.com/ebounds.htm

    This seems to be the same plane pictured on the earlyaviators.com page with the caption "Joseph Cato built this first stunt plane for Rusty Bounds, 1915-1916."

    TVL1970: Thanks for providing the correct spelling of this aviator's name. We'll correct the catalog record when we update.
