This is a genuine period print, not a modern reprint or reproduction.This particular aircraft has a documented history: built by Douglas as construction number 1403, delivered new to American Airlines in 1935 as part of the airline's second order of DC-2s. It later flew for Delta Air Lines before being sold overseas in 1941 for wartime service, where it flew as RAF DG478 with No. 31 Squadron in the China-Burma-India theater.Photograph measures approximately 3.25" x 5.25".

Sharp, well-contrasted image with crisp detail visible in the fuselage lettering, tail registration, and airline emblem. Photo has a slight natural paper curl/wave consistent with age and storage, which lays flat easily. Light corner softness, no tears, no creases through the image, and no writing or marks on the photo face. Clean, display-ready condition.
