EDITORS COMMENTS
This printed souvenir paper napkin commemorates a significant moment in aviation history: the opening of Hanworth Park Aerodrome on October 16, 1917. The event was graced by the presence of the esteemed Lord Mayor, who officially inaugurated the aerodrome in the presence of a large crowd. The aerodrome, located in Hanworth Park, Middlesex, England, was a major transport hub during the early days of aviation. The intricately designed napkin showcases various aircraft, including biplanes and monoplanes, soaring through the clear blue sky. The planes are depicted in great detail, with their wings spread wide and propellers in motion. The background is adorned with a beautiful floral pattern, adding an elegant touch to the commemorative piece. The opening of Hanworth Park Aerodrome marked a significant step forward in the development of air travel. It provided a much-needed facility for the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service, allowing them to train pilots and maintain their aircraft during World War I. The aerodrome played a crucial role in the transport of troops and supplies to the front lines, as well as in the defense of the country against enemy air raids. This printed souvenir paper napkin serves as a reminder of the excitement and innovation surrounding the early days of aviation. It is a testament to the progress made in transportation technology and the role that Hanworth Park Aerodrome played in shaping the future of air travel.
