US Army Air Corps / Air Forces Brigadier General Isaac W. Ott Early Photo Album
Listed is a 1927 through early 1930s US Army Air Corps photo album attributable to US Army Air Forces Brigadier General Isaac W. Almost all of the photos appear to be during flight training or early in his career. Album includes over 180 original photos. I have attempted to provide a solid representative example of the photos included. There is some deterioration to the lower inside corner to several of the black paper pages due silverfish.
