Mysteries At The Museum: Amelia Earhart

On July 24, 1897, Amelia Earhart was born. She was a pioneer in aviation and was the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. In honor of Amelia Earhart Day, Jared letterpress printed an electrotype of a airplane. This is the closest plane to resemble Amelia’s plane that we have in our print shop exhibit. #onthisday #ameliaearhartday #ameliaearhart #aviation #plane #sachistorymuseum #museum #printing | Sacramento History Museum
