 Bending the Rules

Sometimes you need to bend the rules to get the best possible pictures.

McDonnell Douglas  

This was a very important company for not just St Louis but also the government. They were one of the main producers for planes for the military. They were bought out by Boeing in the 90's.

War Era Production 

This was a photograph of the assembly line of the Phantom F4. These plane were used in the Vietnam War and among many branches of the military.

World's Fair

Many people may forget the history that is behind the old coins they collect. When I saw this it made me realize that I own a silver dollar that was possibly used at the world's fair.
