Description
A panoramic view of the runway at United Airport in Burbank. The photograph was taken from the opposite side of the runway, facing the buildings and crowds. The white, Spanish-style terminal building is just left of center, with the Pacific Air Transport building to the left and two hangars to the right. There are numerous rows of airplanes parked on perpendicular runways on either side of the terminal building. The finding aid describes these airplanes as "military airplanes". There are hundreds of parked automobiles on the far right and left. Writing in white in the bottom, left of center, reads "No 4 Photo by ; F.M. Huddleston ; 4-26-1930".
