Lockheed L-188 Electra (N6134A) - Yes, I know that B & W pics are not the most popular (lol), but back in the 60s a kid whose only income was a paper delivery route could only use what he could afford to buy and (later) have developed at the local drugstore.  One good thing about B & W tho, is it holds up well over time; this pic was taken 48 years ago in 1962.  "Flagship Memphis" is gone now; it was broken up a long time ago, but it will always have a special spot in my memories; I was 12, I was about to take my first-ever flight, and this was the very first a/c picture I ever took.  I used my Kodak Brownie camera to take this at the Greater Buffalo International (now KBUF) airport.
