NPR Story Corps uses Airstreams

NPR has an oral history project called "Story Corps" that is collecting stories of America from around the country. And what better to use for a portable recording studio but an Airstream.
Here's the link

And here's a picture

ok, somehow the picture didn't upload...Maybe that's why nobody looked at this thread. It's very cool that Airstream was chosen for this project. Wonder if they were donated.

Thumbs up Great story!

Wow that's great! I just love that NPR is using an American icon like Airstream to collect the people's history. This NPR story gathering reminds me of that WPA oral history project... Thanks for sharing!
