This is an authentic photograph from May 27, 1942 featuring a small Page Airways training plane crash in Rochester, New York. 

The black and white image measures 4.5 by 2.3 inches and was produced using the gelatin-silver print technique. 

The photograph shows the aftermath of a flight training crash involving one of James P Wilmont's Page Airways plane and it is considered a valuable collectible for those interested in vintage aviation memorabilia. 

The photograph is in very good condition and would make a great addition to any collection.
