Dayton, Ohio

Dayton, Art Museum had an incredable exibit entitled "Treasures of Ancient Eygypt the Quest for Immortality". It was presented by NCR corp.(National Cash Register) which was started in Dayton and still operates there. The whole place was free, so I'm assuming NCR foots most of the bill.














Bicycle made by the Wright Bros. displayed in their shop. Before the bicycle business, they were in the printing business, and afterward in the aviation business. Busy boys!!! No wonder they had no time to marry.












Wright Bros 1905 plane which is displayed in the Carrilon Park Museum, which was started by the founder of NRC. the fabric on this plane is muslin, cut on the bias, and sown by the brothers with their sisters treadle sawing machine.
