Description

Three of the stars in the Hollywood Aces Air Show spent an afternoon grooming their planes at Municipal Airport. Bill Morrison is shown at the controls of the ship in which he does a loop and spin with a dead motor. He is wearing a long-sleeved collared shirt and trousers. On the side of the plane is an advertisement for Kendall Motor Oil. The logo reads, "Kendall The 2000 Mile Oil," accompanied by a cartoon hand giving the victory ("V") sign.
