Luxurious Pyjamas
This French three-piece pyjama suit was designed primarily
for the boudoir. The cast is of citronelle transparent velvet, with
tucks on sleeves and hom; the vest is of white satin; and the
trousere of black satin, tucked at the cuffs.
More than a mile above the ground, this Commandaire biplans flew, with no human hand on the controls for a matter of half an hour. The experiment was made by Captain "Bill" Vermilya above the Municipal Airport at Chicago, an International Newsreel cameraman accompanying him in another craft to photograph the exploit. Notice the pilot climbing put of the cockpit, leaving the "stick" to itself.
