Description
Photograph of the French airship "Patrie" on a postcard, ca.1907. A front view of the airship, with the word "Patrie" painted in the center. Below it, several people gather to see the passengers off, and a man can be seen climbing into the craft from a ladder on the left-hand side. Several cables keep the aircraft on the ground. In the distance, the outlines of trees can be discerned. The background is neutral.
