| Description: | Same as catalog # 514929 "America - LINDY... SPEAKS! - Famous airman who has hitherto always refused, whatever the occasion - permits record at U.S. Government air mail contracts enquiry." United States of America (USA). Ironically, despite the title "Lindy Speaks," this item is indeed silent. Charles A. Lindbergh seated in front of microphone, people (audience) seated behind him, several men in front of him. This Congressional inquiry investigated charges that the government had unfairly favored large airlines in awarding air mail contracts. He is obviously asked question(s). Close up shot of Lindy speaking. He makes occasional breaks - presumably he is answering questions. Lindy looking into camera smiling and nodding his head. (Alternate spellings for search purposes - Lindburg, Lindberg, Lindburgh) | |
