Famous airplanes in the above illustration:
Iowa Man reports:
Picked these up at White Salmon house Estate Sale perched on the Gorge. Beauty location, older miskept house. Scuttle butt is the house was in the Mansfield family for 5 generations. Picked up these free magazines & a book. Densely packed text with interesting articles. Also picked up free book that was tossed in corner, 1st edition Vision - A Saga of the Sky written by Harold Mansfield (of the house family?) who was born in White Salmon, then went on in 1937 to edit Boeing's magazine. The book recounts Boeing's progress from 1910 - 1955 including a bit about Dad's Bomarc (see lower right of blue picture). So quite a surprise, that I didn't put together till I got home.
Bomarc has been mentioned here before. Wikipedia has a page.
