Americana-Photo.com : The American Daredevil Series

Historic photographs from America's wild and wooly days, before seatbelts and bicycle helmets. How did we survive? :-)

Lincoln Beachey's Flight Under Niagra Falls Bridge "Lincoln Beachey's Flight Under Niagra Falls Bridge," Specialty Company, 1911. This airplane doesn't appear to be much different than the Wright Brother's plane, but it is flying this daredevil feat.

Eunice Winkless and Her Diving Mare "Eunice Winkless and Her Diving Mare," C. E. Holnbar, Pueblo, Colorado, U.S.A., July 4, 1905. Great photograph for tavern, swimming pool, recreation room, or family room.
