Period
Used as a souvenir object after the construction of the monument in 1932.
Canada
The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were the first people able to make a controlled and sustained flight in a powered airplane, in December 1903, at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. In 1927, U.S President Coolidge signed a bill assigning a sum of money for the construction of what became the Wright Brothers National Memorial. The memorial was dedicated in 1932. Markers on the ground indicated where the plane had landed after its four flights in December 1903. This broach was presumably designed just before or after the dedication of the Wright Brothers National Memorial. Made by the Bastian Brothers Company of Rochester New York, it carried an image of the monument in orange enamel and an inscription in blue enamel. Founded in 1895 as a jewellery store, Bastian Brothers later went into the production of a variety of items such as badges, buttons and lapel pins. The original owner of the broach was Dr. James A. Fairie, born in 1873, in Montreal. Fairie joined the Canadian Army Medical in February 1915, as a Lieutenant. He served Canada during the First World War, retiring as a Captain. Les frères Wright, Wilbur et Orville, étaient les premiers d’être capable d’effectuer un envolé contrôler et soutenus dans un avion alimenté, en décembre 1903 à Kitty Hawk en Caroline du Nord. En 1927, le président Américain Coolidge signe un projet de loi qui assigne un montant d’argent pour la construction de ce qui deviendra le Wright Brothers National Memorial. Le site a été dédié en 1932. On y retrouve des marques sur le terrain qui indiquent ou que l’avion a atterri après ces quatre envolés en décembre 1903. Cette broche a fort probablement été fabriquée juste avant ou après l’ouverture du site commémoratif. Fabriqué par la Bastian Brothers Co. à Rochester dans l’état de New York, la broche a une image du monument en émail orange et une écriture en émail bleue. Fondé en tant que bijouterie, Bastian Brothers ont éventuellement commencé la production d’une variété d’objets comme des insignes, des boutons et des épingles de revers. Le propriétaire original de cette broche était Dr. James A. Fairie, né en 1873 à Montréal. Fairie a rejoint l’armée canadienne dans les services médicaux en février 1915, en tant que Lieutenant. Il a servi le Canada lors de la Première Guerre mondiale et il prit sa retraite au rang de capitaine.
