Description
Photograph of a ski jumper soaring over a snow-covered land, ca.1930. The jumper, clad in dark-colored clothes, spreads his arms wide and keeps his feet together as he jumps. Below one can see what appears to be a parking lot filled with cars. Several houses can be discerned at the bottom left-hand side of the background. In the distance is a series of hills covered with foliage.
