Scope and content

Photograph showing L. B. Waltz of Selah, Washington, lying on a stretcher as two unidentified attendants lift him into an ambulance. The photograph was taken at Rankin Field in Portland after Waltz arrived by airplane for medical treatment on March 28, 1928. That day, the Oregon Journal published a front-page story about Waltz’s flight and a related photograph, image No. 371N5966. The story, headlined “Patient Brought Here in Airplane,” reported that Waltz, a teacher, had been injured in a car wreck a week earlier and was flown from Yakima, Washington, to Portland by pilot Tex Rankin. See additional related image No. 371N5965. Image note: Photograph quality is poor due to deterioration of the negative.
