Standard size ~3.5″ x 5.5″, divided back, unused
Condition: well-handled example with overall soiling/toning, creases (including a central crease), edge/corner wear, and a clipped/creased upper-right corner; back toned with age. Still an appealing early aviation image. Please view all photos.
A solid early-aviation RPPC with direct San Antonio/Kelly Field interest that remains displayable despite wear.
