Partially obscured color postcard of Yakima Air Terminal. The lower portion shows a close-up of a person reclining, possibly outdoors or in a staged promotional scene, with soft lighting and warm tones. The upper portion of the image is heavily distorted or damaged, obscuring much of the original content. Along the visible lower edge, handwritten-style text reads “Airport – Yakima – Wn,” indicating the postcard’s location.

This vintage postcard features the mid-century terminal building of Boise Air Terminal, prominently displaying the distinctive hexagonal “BOISE AIR TERMINAL” signage across the façade. Automobiles from the late 1960s line the parking lot, emphasizing the era. The control tower rises above the terminal roofline, equipped with rooftop radar and communication antennas. The modernist architectural style, sweeping overhangs, and geometric columns reflect airport design trends of the period. The image documents the airport during a time when air travel was becoming increasingly accessible to the public.
This vintage postcard depicts a Convair 340 operated by United Airlines parked on the ramp at Boise Municipal Airport. Passengers are seen boarding via a mobile stairway, while ground service equipment surrounds the aircraft. The terminal building with its large glass façade and adjacent control tower appears in the background. The Convair 340 was a twin-engine piston-powered airliner widely used in the 1950s and early 1960s for short- to medium-haul routes. This postcard captures a transitional era in aviation just prior to the widespread adoption of jet aircraft on domestic routes.
This vintage postcard labeled “Boise Municipal Airport – Idaho” shows the terminal exterior with its characteristic angled supports and extended canopy. The control tower stands prominently above the structure, and the mountain foothills form a scenic backdrop. The photograph, credited “Color by Mac Miller,” captures the warm tones and design aesthetic of late-1960s airport construction. The terminal’s glass-fronted entrance and curbside roadway illustrate the growing importance of passenger convenience and automobile access in postwar aviation development.
This vintage postcard presents an aerial view of Boise Air Terminal in Boise, Idaho. The image looks down over intersecting runways and taxiways, with Runway 28L clearly marked in the foreground. General aviation aircraft are visible on the apron to the left, while the surrounding agricultural landscape and growing residential areas stretch toward the horizon. The photograph captures the airport during a period of regional expansion, reflecting the growth of commercial and private aviation in southern Idaho during the late 1960s and 1970s. This card highlights the scale and layout of the municipal airport before later modernization and terminal redevelopment projects.

This vintage color postcard depicts a McDonnell Douglas DC-8-71 operated by United Airlines in flight over the mountainous terrain of the Hawaiian Islands. The aircraft is shown on approach with landing gear extended, suggesting descent toward Honolulu International Airport or another island destination. The jet carries United’s 1970s–early 1980s “rainbow” livery, featuring a red, orange, and blue cheatline along the fuselage and the stylized “U” logo on the vertical stabilizer. The DC-8-71 was part of the re-engined “Super 70” series, modernized with CFM56 turbofan engines that improved fuel efficiency, reduced noise, and extended operational life compared to earlier DC-8 variants. Originally introduced in the late 1950s, the DC-8 became one of the pioneering long-range jetliners of the Jet Age, and the -71 conversion allowed continued service into the 1980s and 1990s. United Airlines was a major U.S. operator of the type, deploying it on domestic transcontinental routes and transpacific services, including flights to Hawaii. The dramatic backdrop of steep volcanic ridges and coastal valleys emphasizes the geographic setting and reflects the importance of wide-body and narrow-body jet service in expanding mainland–Hawaii tourism during the late twentieth century. The postcard captures a transitional period in commercial aviation when first-generation jetliners were upgraded for extended service in an increasingly competitive airline industry.

A color postcard depicts Old Orchard Beach Airport in Maine during the early aviation era, showing a wide, sandy airfield with multiple aircraft parked in a row. In the left foreground, a bright yellow biplane with the word “HAZZARD” painted in large black letters on its fuselage rests on the ground. A person stands beside the aircraft near the tail, providing a sense of scale. Farther across the field, several additional airplanes are visible, including light-colored monoplanes and a prominent red aircraft positioned near the right edge of the image. In the middle distance stands a long, low hangar building with a dark roof and a large sign reading “The Hazzard Shoe Flying Corp.” Smaller airport-related structures and fuel containers are scattered around the field. Behind the airfield, a few simple residential-style buildings with pitched roofs sit near the edge of the sand, blending into the coastal setting. The sky above is overcast with layered gray clouds, creating muted lighting across the scene. Printed along the bottom margin of the postcard is the caption, “Trans-Atlantic Planes at Airport, Old Orchard Beach, Maine,” identifying the location and subject.
