Description
Photograph of two men outside the Pony blimp hangar, taken in April 1920. Two men in suits and hats stand in front of the hangar, with an automobile behind them. To the left stands the hangar, with several wooden planks propped against it at points. In a corner stands a man in overalls beside wood and barrels. At left is an expanse of much-trodden soil that fades into a tree-clustered area in the distance. A complex of structures can be made out next to the trees, and across it to the left stand a line of utility poles.
