The Way It Was

Подпись: Rare picture of a Western Air Express Douglas M-2 as it negotiates the Cajon Pass through the Sierra Nevada in 1926. Herbert Hoover, Jr. is flanked by Jimmy James (left) and Fred Kelly (right), two of the Four Horseman. Hoover was the communications specialist for The Model Airway and Fred seems to be suggesting that a bottle opener might be useful.
