Description
This is a rare vintage lot of eight original 8″x10″ black and white photographs showcasing Harold “Hal” Graham, a pioneer in personal aviation and the first man to fly a jetpack in public.
Taken at Fort Eustis, Virginia, these photographs capture a unique era of U.S. Army experimental aviation in the early 1960s, featuring:
Hal Graham suiting up and testing the Bell Rocket Belt (jetpack)
Pre-flight equipment checks and airborne jetpack shots
Support crew and behind-the-scenes ground activity
Aerial view of Fort Eustis and a candid beach photo with fellow crew
Notable details:
Some images show Graham’s name clearly on the helmet.
US Army aircraft and equipment are visible.
Excellent subject focus and historical value for aviation and military collectors.
Condition:
Photos are in very good vintage condition with minimal curling and no tears. Crisp detail and strong contrast. These appear to be early original prints.
