Photograph caption dated October 31, 1961 reads, "High-Flying Goblin. It's big and silver and it smiles with a monstrous grin. Is it a demon, a goblin, a witch with a steaming cauldron of bewitching secret brew? It could be most anything because today is the Halloween, the day for disguise, tricks and treat, ghouls, jack-o-lanterns, spirits and surprises. And not to be outdone in spirit of fun were painters who playfully dabbed nose of a Lockheed C-130 airplane at Edwards Air Force Base to make it the world's largest jack-o-lantern -- metal style."
