Description
In the photograph the fuselages of the De Havilland DH-4 are lined up outside the Dayton-Wright Airplane Company plant, circa 1918. One aircraft in the foreground is complete. The other aircrafts are lacking wings and most are lacking the propellers. In the background residential buildings are visible including barns, a church, and a cemetery. The side of one barn has a sign painted on it that reads "For best results use Lowe Bros Paints." The shadow of the photographer is visible in the foreground. Similar image to MS152_212 and MS152_053.
