Come Fly Away: Images of Flight from the Vail Rare Book Collection

Featuring selections from the extensive Vail Rare Book Collection and Vail Collection of Aeronautical Prints, Broadsides and Clippings, Come Fly Away is a window into hundreds of years of human interest in flight.

These collections, presented to MIT in 1912 by Theodore N. Vail, former president of AT&T and member of the MIT Corporation, range from the delightfully fanciful to factual depictions of historic events.
