Pilot Gladys O'Donnell in a dress with a corsage standing beside two trophies with three unidentified men in suits. She touches a silver trophy that reads "Aerol Trophy, Women's National Air Speed Race." The text on its base refers to Phoebe Fairgrave Omlie winning the trophy in 1929. This photograph was probably taken in September 1932, when O'Donnell won the trophy for a second time. Handwritten on negative: Gladys O'Donnell.
