1942 Dramatic photograph of the Army leading the search for TWA Flight 3 that took the life of 22 souls including actress Carole Lombard. A short flight that took off from Las Vegas and was heading to Burbank, California, this is one of the most famous plane crashes in history and this is the first original image of the search (before the wreck was discovered) we have ever seen. A touching image in fine condition, this was issued by the International News and stamped on the back.
