1930's Airstream

Very nice! Is the date of manufacture (month/year) stamped into the data plate? On an old registration ticket? I'd be interested in knowing when it was made. Thanks,

It is hard to make out on the serial # plate, I did not write it down when I took the photos. Will get the # on my next visit. The upper tag in the rear photo is from 1938.

What a jewel!

Would the owner let someone do a photo spread or expose' on it for AirstreamLife or some other publication? At least enough to get full photo coverage on it to post on Airstreamphotos.com for us to see?

Thumbs up I'm impressed~!!

For one thing..The door handle looks "original" and, a darn sight better than most you see that followed in the years afterwards..lol
BTW..I'd like to second the "special magazine spread" idea as well. With some insights as to the original owner, etc..
ciao~
