En L'An 2000: The Stirrup-Cup — French Retro-Futurist Airship Café Card

A daring aviator swoops his ornithopter-style biplane directly onto a Parisian café terrace to snatch a drink mid-flight. A startled waiter in chef's whites raises a tray of wine glasses as the yellow-winged craft hovers at table level, its pilot leaning out boldly. In the background, a dirigible and torpedo-shaped aircraft populate the skies above a bustling restaurant labeled 'A L'Avion Rapide,' envisioning the year 2000 as a world of casual aerial commuting.
