Amelia Earhart Marble Bust Flight

About the Item

Amelia Earhart Marble Bust is ready to take flight. Rare original one-of-a-kind hand-carved marble bust, depicting Amelia ready for flight with goggles and Helmut. The quality is amazing and this one-of-a-kind artist marble is very heavy, of solid marble on an integrated marble base. The legend of Amelia Earhart lives in the minds and imaginations of the public. This very special hand-carved marble bust was found in Argentina and made its way back here to the United States. Would make a great addition to any collection on early flights, airplanes, or important women of history. Decades after her presumed death, Earhart was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in 1968 and the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 1973. She now has several commemorative memorials named in her honor around the United States, including an urban park, an airport, a residence hall, a museum, a research foundation, a bridge, a cargo ship, an earth-fill dam, four schools, a hotel, a playhouse, a library, multiple roads, and more.
