Description
Photograph of a composite (?) image of a small commercial airliner flying at night over a city, ca.1935. Near the top at center, a small airliner can be seen flying against a black sky. A small circular propeller is visible at the front of the plane, and two other propellers are seen on either side of the craft. The small cylindrical body of the plane is framed by two large, extending wings. A small light is seen on each wing. The tires of the plane are connected to the wings and body by a series of metallic rods. Below the plane, a large lit city is seen extending into the horizon.
