The International Aero Vehicle Company Records consist of the records of an incorporation formed for the purpose of acquiring patents for the Charles Oliver Jones "orthopter" (ornithopter). The collection consists of 1 volume, containing approximately 142 pages of mostly handwritten records. The records include the Articles of Incorporation, Constitution and By-Laws, meeting minutes, and assorted financial and administrative reports. The majority of the volume is minutes from the Board of Directors' meetings held in Dayton, Ohio, which summarize the activities and current concerns of the company. Occasionally other related documents are tucked inside or affixed to the pages, such as correspondence, drawings, and reports. Of particular note is a copy of a letter from Glenn Curtiss discussing the proposed merger of the International Aero Vehicle Company with his company.
