1784 First flight: "An Account of the First Aerial Voyage in England" - false title page of the book published in 1784, signed by the Italian author Vincent Lunardi, published in the month following his flight on 15 September 1784 from the Moorfields artillery field near Ware, marking the first aerial flight in England (preceded in Great Britain only by Tytler in Scotland). A very rare autograph by this aviation pioneer.
