Description

This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 29 August 1961 "School holidays are fun, especially when there is plenty to do and see. These children were phtographed in a local store gazing at a display of aeroplane photographs. One boy was so carried away that he thought he was a pilot and went through the process of piloting an aircraft."
