  The date 8 Aug 1961 can't be correct! Convair was deep into trouble financially due to the flop made by both the 880 and 990 range of aircraft, and they didn't exactly push them out by the dozen every day. Since the aircraft seen is already painted in American colours, and the delivery date to American was 21 March 1963 something is clearly not right.... Stig

  Stig Jarlevik Stig, we got a grant to digitize 100K of these. We are working through the process...we are finding out how accurate the dates printed on the negative envelopes are. As you pointed out some are not accurate.
