[Window display featuring Clyde Pangborn and Hugh Herndon's trans-Pacific flight]

Photograph of a Great Northern Railway window display featuring Clyde Pangborn and Hugh Herndon's trans-Pacific flight, New York, New York, circa 1930s. The display includes photographs of Pangborn and Herndon and a poem about visiting Wenatchee, Washington, where the pair landed at the end of their flight.

Poem: "An apple falling from a tree, / Made Newton think of gravity: / The apple then is food for thought, / To which the greatest minds are brought. / Pangborn & Herndon thrilled the nation, / Defying laws of gravitation. / They had a bright dare-devil notion, / To reach Wenatchee, o'er the ocean. / Traditional apples Newton saw, / Originated gravity's law. / Wenatchee, famed through fruit and air, / Is reached by rail at modest fare."
