Mystery Ship Air Racer Lyons Studios Limited Edition Aviation Print

Sam Lyons aviation prints reveal aviation's most closely guarded secrets, and this stunning 16" x 20" Mystery Ship Air Racer illustration stands as the crown jewel of golden age aircraft artwork.

This limited edition aircraft print captures the legendary Travel Air Type R racer—one of only five ever built in absolute secrecy—making it the rarest subject matter available to aviation collectible prints enthusiasts.

Historic Significance & Artistic Excellence

What was the Travel Air Mystery Ship racer that has captivated collectors for decades? From the brush of world-renowned aviation artist Sam Lyons comes an extraordinary portrayal of NR614K (Race No. 31), the first of these clandestine racing aircraft that dominated both long-distance and closed-course competitions. This remarkable 1920s-1930s racing aircraft featured an ingenious dual-wing system—short wings for maximum speed and longer wings for cross-country endurance—a design innovation that remained classified until now. Though the original aircraft was tragically destroyed by fire in 1931, Lyons immortalizes every authentic detail with museum-quality precision, from the sleek garnet-hued livery to the perfectly rendered engine cover housing its Wright J-6-9 radial engine.
