Description

Exceptionally rare and historic photo from the billionaire’s 1938 round-the-world flight

Exquisite vintage glossy 10 x 8 photo of Howard Hughes with the crew from his 1938 flight around the world, signed in ink by all pictured: Howard Hughes, crew members Harry Connor, Tommy Thurlow, Dick Stoddard, and Edward Lund, and operations manager Al Lodwick. In fine condition, with a few trivial surface bends. Though covers signed by this group are sometimes seen, signed photos are few and far between—this being the first we have ever encountered. RR Auction COA.
