- Description:
- Photographic print formerly pasted down in an album -- remnants of the adhesive are still visible on the verso. Verso of print inscribed: Cut-line -- The tiny ship skims overhead, at 140 m.p.h. It makes the ideal target for aerial gunnery, since it moves so fast and maneuvers like a full size plane." Inscription "Robot Plane" is crossed out. "Wilder -- Columbus Push-button Plane" is circled; "#2" is below the circle. In a different hand at bottom of print verso: "Photo B Page 20 April 21 Atlanta Journal."
