$21.99

Hi,I have one unique 8\" X 11\" printed picture obtained from a magazine article in 1938. It shows the Boeing B-314 or also known as the Clipper being serviced outside the year before it was introduced in 1939. This photo (note that it is a magazine print)shows the Clipper without engines in a boat yard type setting. You can see the water behind it. Upon closer inspection, you can see a person on the port side wings inner engine doing some sort of work. Even closer, you can see the tail number, NX-18601. What is interesting is this Boeing first served with Pan American Airways and was designated NC-18601 as the Honolulu Clipper, sat down in the ocean after loosing two engines during a flight from Hawaii to San Francisco on November 3-4, 1945. These planes had some serious maintenance problems and the engines were prone to overheat. This was a pretty famous incident and is well documented. Ok, on that note, I can only tell you what I know and researched. Could my information be off a little??? Yup. Please inform if I am not accurate!!! This print ad has been bonded with an acid free archival safe adhesive to acid free cardstock. The airplanes information has been attached to the backside. You will be hard-pressed to find another photo/print like it.Photo is not scanned. What you see is what you get!
