ARTIFACT:
This is a very cool late 1930s timetable holder for Inland Air Lines. Formerly Wyoming Air, the line's name changed to Inland Air Lines in July 1938 when their flights started encompassing other routes beside simply those between Wyoming and Montana. Inland was acquired by Western Air Lines and operated until 1952. The logo is a cowboy on a bucking bronco beneath the path of a Boeing 247. The Boeing 247 was the first true modern airliner with all metal construction. United was the launch customer: Boeing created United at the time to operate the new airplane. The 247 was quickly overshadowed by the also short-lived DC-2, and then flat run over by the "plane that changed the world": the DC-3.
