Charles Lindbergh stands beside an airplane with Harlan "Bud" Gurney at Lambert Field, the St. Louis airfield named for aviation booster Albert Bond Lambert. The catalog dates the picture to 1923 with a circa 1928 estimate, so it likely belongs to the years when Lindbergh was flying out of St. Louis, before his 1927 transatlantic flight made him famous. The relaxed pose beside the aircraft shows how new and hands-on commercial flying still was then. The copyright notice names John M. Noble.
