Vintage 1920s Original Photo - Military Airplane at Fort Sill - Martin NBS-1

Description

Original 1920's vintage photograph of a Martin (?) NBS-1 biplane. From what we have learned, this Army air force airplane was a bomber, it's identification numbers standing for "Night Bomber Short-range Number 1".
This photograph was taken at Fort Sill, Oklahoma by Carlyle Chamberlain in the 1920s while he was stationed there. It is a stunning near profile view with the Army star slightly visible on the upperside of the top wing. With a magnifying glass, you can make out "NSB-1" on the tail. Boldly painted on the side is "1", and the plane number A.S. 22-217.
Behind this beauty is a row of other airplanes with similar markings and appear to be NBS-1 planes also.
Measurement of this photograph is approximately 5 7/8" x 3 5/8"
