- A Porcelain Shaving Mug Commemorating
A Porcelain Shaving Mug Commemorating United States Air Service in World War I
Early 20th Century
depicting a pilot flying a biplane, with the name C.M. Berman and U'S' Air Service 1918-1919 in gilt lettering against a fuschia wrap.
underside marked J&C Bavaria.
Height 3 3/4 inches.
It's likely that this mug was made for Brigadier General Morris Berman. Born in New York in 1891, Morris began his military career in 1912 and rose consistently through the ranks until his death in 1945. In 1918, he was completed courses at the School of Military Aeronautics at both the Georgia School of Technology and the University of Illinois, and studied at the Air Service School for Radio Operators at the University of Texas. In 1919, he joined the office of the Air Service Department and became Assistant Corps Area Air Officer the next year. He served in the U.S. Air Service, Air Corps and Strategic Air Forces in various capacities for the rest of his career.

The end of World War I made thousands of war-surplus airplanes available at bargain prices -- and there were just as many war-trained pilots who wanted to continue flying. At San Diego's Rockwell Field, in 1919, a permanent forest fire patrol was established, equipped with surplus Curtiss Jennies. During the 1920s, the reliable biplane was also a favorite of barnstormers. These daring pilots flew around the country giving stunt flying exhibitions at county fairs and carnivals. In 1924 the Curtiss Exhibition Company flew 100,000 miles -- much of it in Jennies -- conducting aerial photography, carrying passengers, making deliveries and instructing new pilots.

This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood Commemorative cover with a US 29c Flag stamp postmarked December 9, 1993.
Although conceived as a high-wing monoplane, the original design for the SBC scout bomber was less than successful. After the monoplane prototype crashed, the SBC was redesigned as a biplane, the last to be built in the United States for combat purposes. The first SBC took to the air successfully on December 9, 1935. Fifty of the planes -- in a modified version designated SBC-4 -- were leased to France for use on one of its aircraft carriers. But before any could be flown in combat, that country was overrun by the Germans and the French carrier was diverted to the island of Martinique for the duration of World War II. By the time America entered the war, the SBC had been relegated to training purposes and never saw combat. Depicted here is an SBC-3 assigned to the carrier U.S.S. Yorktown around 1939.

Between the World Wars, America was able to make much progress in its military technology. One fine example of this was the F8C Helldiver, the first production Navy aircraft designed for dive bombing. The biplane soon replaced the DH-4 Liberty Plane. The Helldiver could pull off steep dives upon target ships, dropping a single 500-pound bomb or twin 116-pound bombs. At the time, the plane was the only two-seat aircraft in the Navy's fighter squadrons. Some, like those delivered to the carrier U.S.S. Saratoga in August 1930 were welcome additions to the ship's arsenal. The plane could hit targets far out at sea and return to the carrier. The importance of its part in aircraft development cannot be denied since sea-launched planes would play a crucial role in the coming Second World War.

On May 15, 1918, U.S. Army pilots, flying Curtiss JN4Hs -- biplanes affectionately known as "Jennies" -- made postal history by flying the first U.S. air-mail route. Lt. Torrey Webb took off from a makeshift airfield at New York's Belmont Park racetrack bound for Philadelphia. Meanwhile, at Potomac Park in Washington, D.C., President and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson were among the spectators eagerly awaiting the takeoff of another Jenny. For more than 20 minutes, Pilot George L. Boyle futilely attempted to start the plane's engine. Just as the president was about to leave, a voice from the crowd cried "gasoline!" The crew quickly realized they had neglected to fill the aircraft's gas tanks. Once the situation was rectified, Boyle was finally airborne. Unfortunately, misfortune struck again. The misguided pilot lost his bearings and, in an effort to seek help, wrecked the Jenny by attempting to land on a country road. However, another flyer completed Boyle's mission and the first day of airmail service was considered a success. Over the next few years, planes became better adapted to their tasks. Before airfields and aircraft were equipped with adequate illumination, mail had been forwarded by rail during the evening hours. The advent of night flying in 1923 made airmail delivery even more efficient.
