Description
Group shot in front of the biplane. The children at the front are dressed in what could be uniforms - the girls in pinafores and hats, the boys in shorts, long sleeved tops and hats. The men are in suits, the women warmly wrapped up in coats, scarves and hats. Just right of center is a man in flying clothes with a winged emblem on his left pocket. The prop and upper wings of the aeroplane are in the background. One of the men, behind the pilot, has his right hand raised and resting on the centre of the propeller.
