Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "Jet Arrival day 2—3—62" in handwriting. The image shows an exterior, with the foreground being occupied by a wide open field extending into the background where there are low, almost flat hills. In the center of the hills there is a blue—white area which may be part of a mostly unseen glacier. In the foreground, there are several cars parked and a crowd of people milling about, all seeming to look toward the background. The entire scene is blanketed in snow. The number "5" is printed in ink on the frame at the upper left. Also bears the printed text "JUL 62P" on the bottom edge, perhaps indicating when the slide was developed.
