Love this one of the Goodyear Airdock in Akron, about 10 miles from home.
Have been in this Hangar a few times since I was a kid.
In the early to mid 50's I lived a few blocks from the Akron Muni Airport. At that time Goodyear Aircraft Corp. was still building Anti Sub Warfare Blimps for the Navy. They were awesome to watch,near 350' long compared to a 98' Goodyear Add blimp fo today.
Love the Maroon 40 Chevy.

Z class Blimp

I'm happy I was able to bring back good memories for you.
This photo was taken in Richmond, BC. I worked at Dennison Chev Olds at the time.

Man, this is a really cool thread! I got a lot of old Chicago shots. I am a collector of 1910 era real photo postcards. I will post some if you guys want.

Here is one near Madison St & Central Ave. in Chicago's Austin Neighborhood circa the teens.

Maple & 31st Street in Berwyn. I live right by this street and it looks absolutely identical to this shot circa 1925.



63rd & Woodlawn, Chicago circa 1909.
