DescriptionPhoto says dedication of the Billings Airport, 1935, but I wonder if this was the big air show in 1937 - See Two-Day Airshow Begins, Billings Gazette, September 25, 1937. Many of the aerial events of the 37 show took place after 2:00 pm (see shadows) and included over 40 planes. Northwest Airlines sponsored a dance in the new hangar #2 (just west of main building and out of view in photo).TypeImageCreatorUnknownGenrephotographsDate1937SubjectAirplanes--1930-1940Airport terminalsContributing InstitutionBillings Public LibraryGeographic CoverageBillings, MontanaDigital CollectionBillings - Images of PlacesDigital Formatimage/jpgDigitization SpecificationItems were scanned with a Kodak ngenuity 9125 or a Panasonic KV-57075C at 300 DPI using Papervision Capture Scan software.Date Digitized2015copyrightNoC-US
