April 22, 1947 AP wirephoto showing firefighters spraying water into the burning, charred engines and wreckage of a Delta C-47 at Columbus, Georgia. The separate original caption says all eight company officials aboard were killed. Two men stand beside the twisted wreckage as smoke rises from the crash site; a section of the aircraft remains visible behind the shattered engine. The photo and caption are mounted on the same black archival paper. Overall mount measures 9¼ x 7 inches. From the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper. The mount's upper edge has prominent tears and creases, with paper loss at the upper right corner. The print shows light scuffs, scratches and surface wear; the caption is toned and shows minor edge wear. Please inspect photos for condition.
