Lockheed Airlift 1959

Lockheed's cargo aircraft were central to American military airlift, and this ad reflects the growing Cold War emphasis on moving troops and equipment quickly across the globe.

Provenance & Condition

What's Included

Every order ships with bonus clippings from the same issue and a curated report of what was making aerospace news that week — a snapshot of the world this ad first appeared in.
