Description

Photograph of an aerial view of the Union Air Terminal Building at Burbank Airport, August 1935. The words "United Airport" are printed in on the asphalt where planes park in front of the airport at center. A small building appears to gate an open lot of automobiles from the runways in the foreground. Squares of smooth fields speckled with trees lie in the background and extend into the distance.
