Contact seller5-star sellerOblong atlas folio. 21.5 x 9 in. [43 leaves (unnumbered).], on thick black paper stock. With 52 original silver gelatin photos tipped-in, sized from 5 x 7 in. up to 19 x 8 in. (36 panoramas, sized from 18 x 3 in. up to 19 x 18 in.), some w/ photographer's imprint w/in negative at lower fore-edge, some captioned, all tipped-in. C…ontemporary Spruce plywood post-binder covers (same as wood used for spars and biplane bodies in World War I, rounded corners, piano hinge front joint, gilt decorative lettering & logo on front cover (minor scuffing, shelfwear), still VG exemplar. This outstanding souvenir album depicts the height of the vital Naval Aviation Training School which provided essential technical expertise and training to entire generations of Naval Aviators, and Naval aviation mechanics and carpenters through World War I, and beyond. Founded originally in 1904 when a board appointed by President Theodore Roosevelt selected two farms of north of Lake Bluff, IL as a training station, which originally covered 172 acres. By Armistice Day at the end of World War I, the facility had expanded to 1200 acres, and over 45,000 men underwent training. Of particular interest in this album are the 36 panoramic photographs documenting Naval Aviator, and Naval Aviation mechanic classes for the 15th Regiment, and 1st Battalion, 15th Regiment from 1919-1920, as well as class rooms, machine shops for aviation mechanics, and Naval instructors. Others encompass the cutaway model Aviation engines with instructional charts on the surrounding wals, the carpenter's shop with aviation machinery jigs on work benches, and airline bodies under construction. One photo depicts the Motor Laboratory, Steam Laboratory, and Equipment from the USS Eagle 25 at the Aviation Mechanics' School, a US Navy patrol boat which had sunk in a storm in June, 1920, and then been raised and sold off as a hulk by Dec., 1921. Other panoramic photos capture the Riggers' School classroom at Great lakes with full scale biplanes and seaplanes, scale model dirigible, the Coppersmith School classroom, the Fittings classroom with airplane propellers hanging from the walls, dip baths for machined parts and nickel plate coating, and several of the Naval Aviation School football, baseball, and other sporting teams, including the largest panorama of the Inter-Training Station Baseball championship team from Great Lakes. Wallenstein (1861-1958) was a longtime Chicago photographer through the first four decades of the 20th Century who operated his studio out of his 3928 N. Kenneth home and specialized in panoramic photographs. Western Photo Studio in Waukegan, IL appears to have been short-lived as the Waukegan, IL directories from 1918-1921 do not list the business, but possibly connected with the Western Union Telegraph offices, as the address was interchangeable. Volpe (1885-1950 began working in New York originally as a bookbinder, before enlisting as an aviation mechanic with the US Navy in 1910, assigned originally to the newly formed ground school in Pensacola, and later became Chief Warrant Officer, Pilot Airman, and Instructor, who oversaw the Naval Aviation Training School from 1918-1921. He was also the assistant Athletic officer for baseball and tennis at the base.
