About this postcard

Two early monoplanes fly over a broad green field at the Metz Aerodrome in Waltham, Massachusetts, seen from the club house. A dirt road and low tree line cross the middle distance under a pale sunset sky. The view reflects the early years of American aviation, when open fields and club houses drew spectators to exhibition flights and air meets.
