Stevens in his balloon at Wanamaker's in New York, 8 July 1911

Albert Leo Stevens was an inventor and balloonist from New York. Patent data takes this specifically to Manhattan, New York City, New York county, New York.[1]

Stevens had intended to enter the competition at the St. Louis World's Fair.[2] However, he publicly withdrew, writing to Scientific American that the minimum requirement of 20mph speed made it impossible to win.[3]

He built a balloon for Joel Trout Rice[4] and probably others.

"Stevens provided 27 Sept 1877 as his birthdate on his World War I registration, but expert Allen Koenigsberg says he was probably born in 1871 in Cleveland, Ohio, and not with the name Stevens."[5]
