I'm digging through all the completed items from the guy selling the Wheeler Field albums and found this listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/WW1-AVIATION-PI ... 7675.l2557
There are some cool shots of WWI aircraft; can the WIX brain trust ID a few?

The Salmson is a rarity. No surviving aircraft of that manufacturer, though I think I remember a large incomplete Salmson in Japan? There are a few surviving Samson engines.
