ALL are reproductions. The last originals that were in storage during WWII were destroyed by Allied bombing. An original Gnome engine is at Ernie Hall's museum in Howland, Ohio
Wow, there are no originals? That's amazing. Well, I'd have expected that after WW1 someone would have used them for postal delivery, for fun, etc... or even that the military would have sold them to other countries with no airplane manufacturing
One of the most iconic planes ever, instantly recognizable.
