Bob Hoover in his flight suit looking over the first (albeit, second to fly) prototype North American XFJ-2 Fury, BuNo 133754.

From the March 6, 1927 issue of the Medford Mail Tribune (Medford, Oregon), Page 20: www.newspapers.com/newspage/113681113/ "Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover, a Californian, wielding the knife, the world's largest pie is cut and served in Washington to several hundred guests at the annual dinner of the California State Society. The pie was made with prunes from the California ranch of Representative Arthur M. Free and weighed more than 700 pounds. It was baked under the supervision of Mrs. Walter Johnson, California girl and wife of the Washington team's pitching ace."

Good find TVL1970. We'll add this information to the catalog record. I found another article which said it was 5 feet across and 6 inches deep. No word on how it tasted.

We recently found some old catalog cards for Harris & Ewing that had a caption for this photo, although in this case I think our commenters did a better. Harris & Ewing's caption for this photo was simply: "Secretary Hoover and pie."
