Title	Dedication of the Los Angeles International Airport, June, 1930
Description	Photograph of the dedication of the Los Angeles International Airport, June, 1930. Scores of United States Marines biplanes are parked on a runway at left. The planes are divided into two groups with a large gap between them. A large crowd of spectators is gathered along the side of the runway at center. In the background at right is a large terminal building with a control tower on top. A hangar is directly in front of the terminal. There are several early-model automobiles parked on the cement near the hangar. In the distance across an open field, a line of trees is visible.; Construction of the airport began Oct. 1928, and was completed in 1929. It was dedicated in June 1930 and became the L.A. Airport in 1937.
