Pictured is Lincoln Beachey, aviation pioneer. The City of Toronto Archives received from a researcher the following information referring to these additional photos:

"The airplane is probably Lincoln Beachey's Curtiss-type "Pusher" biplane with eight-cylinder Curtiss V-8 engine and no forward control surfaces, and the event is probably the Buffalo Aero Club Aviation Meet, Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada, June 20-24, 1911."
