    David Hayes, Merchant: 58 in 1901. It's hard to gauge his age from this picture though.
  • derangedlemur said:
    William Eager - 46, Thomas Mannix - 58, John Quinlan - 24. They're all shopkeepery sort of ages. I'd say this is quite close to the turn of the century. Quinlan can't have been in business much before this (Unless he inherited the business from another J, I suppose - his mother's still on the premises as head of family).

    I believe this is a display model of a proposed lifting body and reusable Atlas booster as mentioned below. I've added it to a gallery with other pictures of the same model. "During 1957 Convair began participating in the Air Force SR-89774 study of reusable space boosters that lasted through 1965. To allow the reuse, a 51-foot span swept wing complete with end-plate vertical stabilizers and four General Electric CL-610 [sic*] turbojet engines was grafted onto the Atlas booster." To Reach the High Frontier: A History of U.S. Launch Vehicles, edited by Roger D. Launius and Dennis R. Jenkins. Lexington: University Press of Kentucky, 2015. *The CJ-610 is probably what's meant, non-afterburning civilian version of the J85 turbojet.
