Vintage press photo, 8x10", b&w on heavy paper. Lengthy press release on reverse describes how Charles Julienne De Bever of Roosevelt Field. NBC sponsored the project which was to have De Bever broadcast during free-fall on July 4, 1929. De Bever is shown with the microphone across his mouth and the wooden box containing the transmitter. (No idea how this turned out!). Excellent; fascinating image!
