One of the most well-known names in aviation history must be the de Havilland Tiger Moth.  8868 were built between 1932 and 1944.  Here are two of the very many survivors:

de Havilland D82 Tiger Moth
de Havilland DH-82A Tiger Moth Forward cockpit
de Havilland DH-82A Tiger Moth Rear cockpit
de Havilland DH-82A Tiger Moth II Aircraft,
de Havilland DH-82A Tiger Moth II Aircraft,
