Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. A picture of a snapshot of Mantz, Earhart, and Headle, standing in front of a plane. All three are dressed similarly in white blouses and light-colored slacks. Photograph appears with the article, "Test Pilot Bemoans Lack of Thrills Now," Los Angeles Times, 20 July 1936: 10. Marshall Headle is proceeding to show the latest model Lockheed to prospective buyers in the Midwest. Text from newspaper caption: Marshall Headle, test pilot for Lockheed, says there's no danger left in the testing game now. But some timid people may not agree with him. Anyway, here is Headle (at right) shown with two flyers who have helped make aviation safe-Paul Mantz and Amelia Earhart. Handwritten on negative: PAUL MANTZ AMELIA EARHART MARSHALL HEADLE Text from negative sleeve: 3636 - MARSHALL HEADLE PAUL MANTZ AMELIA EARHART [stamped:] [illegible]
