Abstract
To make the general public more aware of the advances in transportation, the almost two-week long Hudson-Fulton Celebration (September 25–October 9, 1909) celebrated the 300th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s discovery of the Hudson River and the 100th anniversary of the first successful application of steam to river navigation by Robert Fulton, when he and his team traveled in the Clermont from New York to Albany in 36 hours. Another fifty years later, The World offered a $10,000 prize to the first person to travel by air from New York to Albany.
