This print captures a Ford Trimotor plane on the brink of departure from an airfield in 1932. Known affectionately as the "Tin Goose" this remarkable aircraft was the brainchild of William B Stout and manufactured by the renowned Ford Motor Company. With its ability to accommodate twelve passengers, this flying marvel cruised at an impressive speed of 125 miles per hour. During its production period between 1925 and 1933, a total of 199 Ford Trimotors were built, symbolizing a significant era in aviation history. The image showcases individuals dressed in fashionable attire for that time period, eagerly boarding the plane with their briefcases in hand. Men donning overcoats and hats stand alongside elegantly dressed women, reflecting the fashion trends prevalent during this era.

The propellers poised for action hint at the power and innovation behind this iconic aircraft design. This snapshot serves as a testament to both technological advancements made by William B Stout and his team at Ford Motor Company, as well as America's growing fascination with air travel during this transformative period. Preserved within Heritage Images' Historica Graphica Collection, this timeless image transports us back to a time when aviation was still in its infancy but held immense promise for future generations.
